Weather contingency is one of the biggest unquantified risks in any outdoor bid. The industry default is a flat 10% guess — no data, no way to defend it to an owner. Xyloclime Pro changes that.

Industry research — Zurich North America, MDPI, FOX Weather
In 2024, 17 of 27 billion-dollar weather disasters in the US were severe convective storms — derechos, hailstorms, and tornadoes — no longer confined to traditional high-hazard zones. Even previously "low-risk" regions now require active weather contingency planning.
What Xyloclime Measures at Your Site
8 metrics · computed from 10 years of NOAA records at your exact project location
Actual app output — every number computed at your exact project location from NOAA station records
Powered by NOAA GHCN-Daily and other industry-standard data sources
Xyloclime Pro provides historical weather analysis and planning estimates. All outputs are probabilistic, based on historical patterns, and intended to inform — not replace — professional judgment. Final project decisions and bid amounts remain the responsibility of the contractor.
More than half the time… similar schedules have historically come up short.
Not based on averages — based on recent weather patterns. Most tools treat 2015 the same as 2024. We don't.
That question costs contractors money every year. The industry default — a flat 10% guess — has no data behind it and no way to defend it to an owner who thinks you're padding. Xyloclime gives you the answer: 10 years of NOAA records at their exact site, showing exactly how many days historically stop work. Hand them the report. The negotiation ends.
No software setup. No schedule file. Just a site, some dates, and a construction type.
Address or ZIP, start/end dates, construction type. That's it.
Workable days, risk score, monthly breakdown, phase exposure — from real NOAA records.
Run the bid contingency calculator. Export a PDF. Attach it to your bid package.
Every view is built around the question estimators actually ask: how many days can I count on, and how much should I price in?
Every dot is a real historical year at your site. Drag the line to see exactly what percentage of past years would leave your schedule short. P90 is the number that holds in 9 of 10 years — that's your bid floor.
Precipitation, temperature, wind, and workability — each weighted and scored against 10 years of NOAA records at your exact location. The mitigation recommendations tell you exactly what to plan for.
Based on your site's actual risk profile, Xyloclime surfaces the mitigation strategies that matter most — from scheduling buffers to trade-specific precautions — so your contingency plan matches the data.
The executive summary distills the full analysis into a shareable overview — risk rating, key findings, and your recommended contingency — formatted for an owner meeting or bid package attachment.
Every feature is designed for the bid phase — before the contract is signed and before you break ground
Concrete, roofing, earthwork, and framing each have different weather thresholds. Xyloclime scores every phase separately and flags the ones that need schedule protection.
30 unexpected stoppage days × your daily standby cost = a specific number tied to real data. Not a flat percentage. Not a guess.
Historically-scored 2-week windows across your project period, plus a full month-by-month risk table. Schedule weather-sensitive phases where the record says conditions hold.
Temperature trends, precipitation by month, wind patterns, and a weather distribution breakdown — all from NOAA station records at your exact project location.
Scores every phase window against 10 years of historical data and identifies the arrangement that maximizes workable days. One click applies the optimized Gantt — you see what shifts and why before you commit to a bid schedule.
When a phase window is historically non-executable, Xyloclime flags it as a structural failure — not a yellow caution. The Bid Intelligence panel benchmarks your schedule estimate against industry historical ranges so you know if your buffer is in the right ballpark.
Every use case is in the bid phase — before the contract is executed
Replace the flat 10% guess with a data-backed number you can actually defend
Document historical exposure before the contract is signed — not after delays start
Sequence concrete, roofing, and earthwork into historically favorable windows before mobilization
Copy-ready weather clause backed by 10 years of NOAA records at the project site
Quantify freeze exposure and cold-weather costs at bid time — not after mobilization
In Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Georgia — NOAA data shows 40–100+ days above 95°F per year. Price heat delays before you sign, not after crews slow down
10 years of NOAA data for their site — documented exposure, not a gut feeling
Mark a project active and track actual workable days against your P50 projection in real time — see immediately if you're ahead or behind plan
Everything the estimator and preconstruction PM needs to price weather risk before a contract is signed — without enterprise overhead or scheduling software

The largest contractors in the world — firms with dedicated risk managers, enterprise software stacks, and full planning departments. If that's not you, those tools aren't for you either.
Many weather risk tools rely on ERA-5 reanalysis: a satellite-derived model that estimates what the weather was. It's excellent for global coverage in remote areas.
For US projects, Xyloclime uses NOAA GHCN-Daily first — actual measurements from physical weather stations. If it snowed 4.2 inches on March 14th in Denver, that's what the record says. No model, no estimate.
This matters most in terrain-sensitive areas: mountain sites in Colorado, coastal projects in the Pacific Northwest, high-wind corridors in the Plains. ERA-5 smooths over microclimates that NOAA stations capture precisely.
Every improvement ships automatically to all subscribers — no upgrades, no add-ons, no new purchase. The tool you buy today keeps improving, at the same price.
Every improvement ships directly to your browser — no downloads, no reinstalls, no version management. You're always on the latest version, automatically.
New construction templates, smarter recommendations, better export formats, phase auto-fill — all shipped free to active subscribers as they're built. No upsells, ever.
The tool is actively developed by people who understand construction estimating. When a real-world bid surfaces a gap, it gets fixed — fast. Subscribers shape the roadmap.
Estimators who don't quantify weather exposure don't avoid the risk — they just absorb it silently. Xyloclime gives you the historical record so you can price it correctly before you sign.
Every outdoor bid you price without weather data is a bet. Xyloclime gives estimators and preconstruction teams the historical record to price that bet correctly — before the contract is signed. At $899/year, that's less than one day of crew standby on a mid-size job.
One flat annual fee. Every job included. No per-project charges, no seat limits.
A winter painting schedule with 0 workable days. One click finds it, one click fixes it.
This is what your bid may be missing. And why margin gets left on the table.

Everything you need to know about Xyloclime Pro
Primary: NOAA GHCN-Daily (real station measurements). Fallback: Visual Crossing, then Open-Meteo. The system automatically picks the best source for your location.
US-first with NOAA's dense station network. Global coverage via Visual Crossing and Open-Meteo fallback — data quality may vary outside the US.
7 days free — card required upfront. No charge until day 8. Cancel before then and you won't be billed. After the trial: $899/year.
Yes, anytime with no penalties. Access continues through the end of your billing period.
Everything — one flat price, no add-ons. Unlimited projects, PDF/Excel export, bid calculator, phase scheduler, smart recommendations, and priority support.
All outdoor construction: concrete, excavation, roofing, asphalt, steel erection, masonry, framing, and more. Each has its own weather thresholds.
Historical only. Xyloclime analyzes 10 years of NOAA records — it does not forecast future weather. Use it for bid pricing and pre-contract decisions, not active job site management.
Enterprise tools require a schedule file, a planning department, and a 6-figure contract. Xyloclime needs a site address and dates. Under 3 minutes, $899/year.
Yes — Running Project Mode lets you mark a project active and automatically tracks actual weather days against your P50 projection. You see a live count of actual workable days vs what the historical average predicted at this point in the schedule, plus a day-by-day log you can override manually. It's a planning reference, not a delay claim document — for contractual claims, verify against site records and your contract language.
Yes. Extreme heat is a first-class analysis factor. NOAA records for southern states capture 40–100+ days per year above 95°F, and Xyloclime counts these in your workable day calculations and risk score. The same analysis that flags a Minnesota job for freeze days flags a Houston job for heat days.
Not a real-time forecast tool. Not for active job site decisions. If you need to know what's happening next week — use Weather.gov. Xyloclime is for the bid phase, before work starts.
Pre-purchase questions, trouble completing checkout, billing issues, or anything else — we respond to every email. No bots, no ticket queues.
support@xyloclime.comImportant Disclosures
Xyloclime Pro is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind. All outputs — including workable day counts, risk scores, contingency percentages, dollar estimates, and Running Project Mode actuals tracking — are statistical estimates based on weather records and user-provided inputs. Running Project Mode actuals data is sourced from ERA5 reanalysis (Open-Meteo) with typical 3–7 day lag and may not reflect hyperlocal site conditions. Actuals tracking is a planning reference only and is not suitable for use as contractual delay claim documentation without independent verification against site records. They are not forecasts, predictions, or guarantees of future or past weather conditions or project outcomes. Actual conditions may differ materially from historical patterns. Weather thresholds used to define workable and non-workable days are generalized industry approximations and should be verified against your specific project, trade, contract, and jurisdiction. Any sample contract or bid language is provided as a general reference only and must be reviewed and adapted by your attorney before use.
