Weather-on-the-Way gives dispatchers a single view of the wind, precipitation, visibility, and temperature the crew will encounter along the corridor — segment by segment, time-aligned to the planned move.
How It Works
Set the planned departure time on the route. RoadScope walks the route at the configured travel speed and queries forecast data for each segment at the projected time of arrival. The map and timeline color-code segments by condition severity, and a top-line risk banner summarises the move as Good to Travel, Use Caution, High Weather Risk, or Do Not Dispatch.
What to Look For
- Wind speed and gusts — critical for high-profile loads
- Precipitation — rain, snow, freezing rain along the corridor
- Visibility — fog or low-visibility windows
- Temperature — freezing/thawing conditions on bridges
Adjusting the Plan
If a forecast segment exceeds your operational thresholds, shift the departure time and re-run — the timeline updates instantly. You can also mark a hold-window directly on the route record.
In the Driver Briefing
Weather-on-the-Way summaries are included automatically in the Driver Briefing PDF, so the driver leaves with a printed forecast aligned to their planned timeline.
