Support usQuestions, answered
Where does the live data come from?
Weather and air quality come from Open-Meteo's open forecast models, city overviews from Wikipedia, earthquakes from the U.S. Geological Survey, headlines from the GDELT Project and maps from OpenStreetMap. Data refreshes every few minutes in your browser and a snapshot is refreshed automatically every six hours.
Is Live.City free?
Yes. The site is supported by advertising, sponsorships and reader donations. The relocation plan is free for movers; partners pay us, not you.
Can I rely on this for safety decisions?
No. Live data can be delayed or incomplete. For storms, earthquakes, air-quality alerts or travel advisories, always follow your local authorities and official services.
Can you add my city?
Yes — we're adding cities every month. Tell us which city you want next, or sponsor its launch.
