Rule of thumb: If the swackett peeps appeared dressed for inclement weather, you should be dressed for inclement weather too. Rain? swackett® peeps appear with rain jackets and an umbrella. A hot, sunny day? swackett peeps appear wearing shorts and sunglasses - and they even remember to bring along drinking water and sunblock. If it happens to be cold outside, swackett peeps appear dressed in winter hats, coats and boots. Our unique approach combines raw weather data (current conditions, radar, and detailed forecasts) with thoughtfully crafted people symbols (called “peeps”) who always appear appropriately dressed for the weather. We convert complex weather data to easily-understood, visual weather reports designed for people of every age. Swackett® is a whole new way to look at the weather.
