Weather delay log

Field record

The conditions you observed, the areas and activities they stopped, and the hours you count as lost.

Observed, not fetched

Every weather claim eventually turns on what it was actually like on the site, and site conditions are not airport conditions. This records what somebody saw, at a time, in an area, with what it stopped — and it fetches nothing, so there is no third party's number to argue with.

It claims nothing

No baseline, no threshold, no contractual conclusion, no notice. Recording a day here does not make it a weather day under anybody's contract, and the tool decides nothing about entitlement to time or money.

Around it

Other causes of delay go on the schedule delay log. The whole day is the contractor daily report, and who was standing is the manpower & equipment log.

A record of conditions you observed. It fetches no weather data, applies no baseline or threshold, makes no claim that any day is a weather delay under any contract, and is not a notice. Everything runs on your device.

Questions people ask

Does it pull the weather from anywhere?
No. There is no weather service, forecast or station behind this, and no external data is fetched. What goes on the sheet is what somebody standing on the site observed, which is also the only version that describes the site rather than the airport eleven miles away.
Does recording a day here make it a weather day?
No. It compares nothing to a baseline, applies no threshold and decides nothing under any contract. Whether weather entitles you to time or money — and what the baseline is — is in your contract, which this tool has not read.
Why record the time and the area?
Because a whole-day entry is the one that gets challenged. Rain at 06:20 that stopped the membrane crew on the podium deck, with four standing and three hours affected, is a fact. “Rained, no work” is a position.
Do I still need the daily report?
Yes, and they do different jobs. The daily report is the whole day for the whole job. This is the weather record with the fields that matter when weather is in question, and on most jobs it is filled in on perhaps fifteen days a year.
