Returns GO, CAUTION or NO-GO with reasons, from the National Weather Service forecast and active alerts, live USGS river gauges (flow and 6-hour trend) for paddling, rafting, fishing and swimming, NOAA tide times on the coast, and sun and moon times. Works in launch metros or anywhere in the US with latitude and longitude.

Returns a link that opens the app's Plan an outing screen with the name, time, length, meeting spot, group size, notes and weekly repeat already set, plus a conditions check when it's within a week. Nothing is posted until the host taps Post. Times accept "9am", "6:30 pm", "sunrise", "sunset" or "full dark".
