      It would be useful if you live in the United States, or any of the dozens of countries that use the system either as a standalone measurement of temperature or as part of a dual system. The British Virgin Islands, Antigua, Barbuda, the Bahamas… Etc.

      I find it actually kind of a fun way to start a conversation with anyone outside of the U.S. by attempting to convert my local weather to Celsius. I’m on international calls fairly regularly and (can’t blame anyone for this) telling anyone outside the US or the countries above the temperature in fahrenheit is like speaking a foreign language.

      Oh, in case you’re not aware, generally a feature list isn’t specifically catered to one specific person.

      Fun to fuck with people in winter that it will be in the thirties tomorrow. I like to show little kids and see what they say. If they’re younger than ~8, it tends to work, then I get to tell them about the world a little more and if they’re interested, teach them how to convert. That was the first conversion I figured out, it’s pretty easy, and it’s applicable to the real world, so it’s great at getting kids into math.

    Lovely, but no widget support… Is there any foss weather app with good widget selection? I tried a bunch from F-Droid a while ago and didn’t find any.

      Breezy Weather has a great selection of widgets, some of them even Material You.

        I just searched F-Droid and Play Store for Breezy Weather and couldn’t find it at all. What am I missing?

          The IzzyOnDroid repo, most likely.

          If you’re using the stock F-Droid store app, you have to manually add it. If you’re on one of the newer clients, like Neo Store, it’s enabled out-of-the-box.

            Cool, thanks! I ended up pulling the apk from izzyondroid but will look at editing my f-droid repos (didn’t realize that was a thing lol).

          Breezy Weather isn’t on the Play Store or the main F-Droid repo. You could either use IzzyOnDroid (different F-Droid repo) or just use Obtainium to get the APKs straight from Github.

    If you are in Finland, I’ve yet to find anything that beats the Finnish Meteorological Institute’s app.

    Particularly useful, is the cloud radar view, which lets you see the movements of rainclouds in 15 minute increments.

    By looking at how the clouds are moving, I can reliably tell how long a given rain shower will last, if and when there will be a gap in the downpour, how long it will last…

    It’s kind of mind blowing how accurate it is.

    Kind of off-topic here, but I’m looking for recommendations on a weather app that shows multiple cities on the same screen. My use case is different from that of most of people: I travel a lot and want to see weather in many locations at a glance. I currently use Klara weather and it does the job, but the reason I use this app is that I couldn’t find any other apps, and I wish there was some choice.

    Klara looks like this:

    As you can see it only fits 3 cities in a screen and ideally I want something minimal with as many locations in one screen as possible, even if it’s not FOSS, but if I have a choice I always prefer FOSS. Klara is not open source AFAIK.

    I really dig the style. However, I live in a town that has a fairly common name and the application defaults to another location.

    Is there any way I could prompt the right location?

    Thanks!

      I think its just a current limitation of the app. Hopefully the feature gets added soon, there’s a few minor issues that would make the app really great. It works for my home city but can’t seem to find where I work, which is unfortunate.
