Every day gets its best daylight reading from Seattle: out, partly, or hidden. The table is the count so far. It grows by one row a day and starts thin.
Mount Rainier, Mount Hood, Mount Baker, Mount St. Helens, Denali, The Olympics and Mount Angeles. Visible now or not, the three-day forecast, and the sunrise and sunset light. $1.99, one time.
The live page reads the airport cloud ceilings between Seattle and the summit every fifteen minutes. A day's entry is the best of those daylight readings, so one clear hour counts the day as out. Nights are ignored. Smoke and haze count against it the same way they do on the live page.
The clear windows in the next three days, and the sunrise and sunset light on the summit, are in the app. $1.99, one time.

Made for photographers and anyone driving to a viewpoint. $1.99, one time. No account, no ads.
We read the cloud ceilings at the airports between Seattle and the summit, the cloud layers at the summit from the MET Norway model, and whether that cloud sits below 14,410 ft. No crowd reports.
Cloud forecasts are not reliable past about three days, so the forecast stops there.
Different weather stations, different sky. The same morning can be fog in one and clear in the other, twenty miles apart. Each region page reads its own stations.
Wildfire smoke and haze can hide the mountain on a day the cloud numbers say clear. When the numbers are unsure, the page says so.
