What the time doesn't tell you
A sunset time says when, not how good. Golden Hour reads tonight's weather for where you stand and gives a 0 to 100 score with the reason in plain words: low cloud that blocks the light, high cloud that catches it, haze, rain. Pro adds the next three evenings, alerts and saved spots.
