The graph seems to suggest that lots of blue equals lots of rain, but the chart just shows the chance of precipitation. Maybe it would be more useful to show the expected rainfall amount. Since there's no defined range of values for this, the bottom of the graph could be zero and the middle could be whatever an average amount of rainfall is. Naturally some values would go beyond the bounds of the layer. Or perhaps I could do some kind of log transform.

Upon pressing the button to update weather in Clay, the weather should be fetched using the selected weather provider.

Even though the frame is adjusting when manually refreshing the screen, when the time ticks normally the frame is not adjusted.

Can you please add a color picker option to setting to be able to pick colors for time, please?
That would be awesome, and fairly easy to implement as well.

The following snippet currently gets no response from the reverse geocoding service:

I'm not sure what the cause for this is. Here is the free endpoint that I'm calling, I don't see any obvious notices about changes to the service, but any calls that I try to make get stuck. This might just be a temporary slowdown. Later on I'll look a bit deeper to see if there's any actual changes.

It's sort of geeky and little practical use, but add a phase of the moon indicator somewhat like on the old ForecasWatch. It might be possible to find a better place to put it

Also, someone suggested red Sundays, but how about optional red holidays? (Of course, you wouldn't be able to program in every single holiday for every single culture, but even just "if this is red on a calendar you buy in a store in America, it's red on the watch" should be useful.)

Thank you, for reviving one of the best watchface of our pebble.
I would find it convenient to be able to choose the first week to display, current or last week.

As the number of configuration options grows, I will need a way to conveniently store them all. Storing them all in one object also facilitates persistent storage of configuration options between app launches.

Current date cursor in the calendar on Basalt should be changed to a more contrast color like for example the blue perspiration color on the weather graph. Right now the dark blue is almost indistinguishable form the black background, unless the watch is in the direct sunlight or with back-light on. Or make it a black number against the white rectangle as it was in the original Forecastwatch.

Originally, right upperside of graph was wind speed.

Instead of scraping, the watchface could try some well-supported API. Examples:

• Met.no (also used in Home Assistant)
• OpenWeatherMap (they even claim it is easy to migrate from DarkSky API)
• Buienradar (minutely rain forecast only for a couple of countries)
• drops.live (AKA Buienalarm, minutely rain forecast, but sadly no API)
• AccuWeather (Limited Trial access allows each developer up to 50 calls per day.)

You may even want to take a look at the weather services already implemented in Home Assistant.

Personally I would like to have the face update every six hours, others might be interested in 9 or 12.

Vibrate on connect/disconnect and show Bluetooth icon

I noticed this morning (October 25 2020) that the calendar dates displayed:
18 19 20 21 22 23 24
[25] 26 27 28 29 30 31
1 1 2 3 4 5 6

This appears due to the calendar month rotating from a month ending with 31 days on a Saturday. The big was easily remedied by going to another screen and coming back to the watch face. The calendar properly set to:
18 19 20 21 22 23 24
[25] 26 27 28 29 30 31
1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Anyway to add seconds option in the upper left corner?

The Weather Underground app slightly lightens the gray over their night regions.

I did some weird calculations to try to make the bottom axis responsive to the number of hours of data that are fetched. Really, the hour and tick markers should just be fixed and the hour labels are all that can vary. As long as the user can only select from 12-hour increments, it will be trivial to calculate the label values from the starting hour.

Suggested by @shadow303 in #16

Selecting one of the weather provider options and submitting should change the provider used in index.html and preserve the configured value on next launch of the clay config page.

Hi ForecasWatch 2 users,

These days I am focusing on my graduate studies and 3D web programming, so I don't have spare time to develop new watchface features. I also don't wear my Pebble regularly anymore due to a bluetooth battery drain issue.

For now I am leaving the Issues panel open to support existing FCW2 features should any bugs arise (seems it has been stable though), and if you'd like to implement new features I can provide tips and guidance, but I generally won't be very active in this repo.

Figured I should pin a message here explaining why the feature requests aren't getting attention. Apologies for any inconvenience!

✌️

Ok, first thing first, being able to read the time in 24h format could be really useful for all of us metric guys ))

Near the weather update button there should be visual indication of the last time, date, and location for which weather was fetched. Perhaps we could also indicate the delivery status (i.e., whether the messaged failed to send).

Rather than making this a property of the weather provider.

Like old watchface anyway to add forecast icon to calendar?

It would be nice if this could support more watch models in the future. I understand that it would be hard to change the layout for the Pebble Round, but it should be possible to make a grayscale version to support the Original and Steel models. (My pebble 2 isn’t working right now, so I can’t tell if it is currently supported or not.)

Allow for inverted color scheme on black and white watches. I.e. black text and info with a white background.

Right now when the watch is charging the battery shows as if it's low. I can use a lightning bolt symbol to show that it is being charged instead.

There is space in the top left for this to appear. Learned about its existence in the API thanks to the recently published Oswald Vertical watchface.

In the Clay config, allow users to enter a location manually (e.g. city name) to use for weather updates.

Recently the weather graph has stopped working when using gps.

When i put in a location manually it works again.

edit: reinstall fixed it

It always remains white whatever I set.

Hi there!
Hope you are well ! Actually I would love to get an animation (gif) from a flick. Forecaster remains all the time on the pebble like it is right now, and a wrist flick triggers the little animation for a few seconds. Maybe we can even have a custom gif. If this possible, it would be just amazing! Take care

I think this is true for all battery level changes but I'm documenting what I saw today:

• watch battery low, 20%
• exit out of FCW2
• load a different watchface
• charge pebble (to 100%)
• load FCW2 - battery still shows as low, eventually it will update

This appears to be due to the watchface persisting and then reading the battery level to storage. I'm not sure why it does this. I'll attach a quick fix but I think the persistence code should be removed.

LECO is a Pebble system font. It would be great to change the time to the largest possible LECO font that would fit into that area.

What happens to our existing products?
...
Our API service for existing customers is not changing today, but we will no longer accept new signups. The API will continue to function through the end of 2021.

Weather Underground support still works great as of 2020-04-01 :)

As title says, weather update is not working. I have attempted Weather Underground and DarkSky, as I still have a DarkSky api key. This issue began presenting about 6pm CT Friday July 22 (Midnight GMT Saturday July 23) across multiple locations, with or without wifi and manual updates.

The Weather Underground provider just uses the first temperature in the forecast as the current forecast. This is because the existing API call only delivers forecast info, not current weather. A second call should be added in to fetch this additional information to make the data more accurate.

I am used to 24-hour current time format, would it be possible to implement a switch for that?

Hi,

First and foremost love the watchface and use it as a daily driver. Since yesterday night 10:30 PM CEST weatherunserground data are not synced anymore.

I wonder if I am the only one who has the issue or if something changed at least the service does not seem to be down.

I am using GPS location settings however also a fixed location is not working.

Any hint/additional info highly appreciated would not want to change my beloved watchface :)

Cheers and happy Easter

Just like old Forecasweather face can you add red color to Sunday column fonts? It's easier to know the day when you glance the watchface.

Love this watchface. Would be nice to have a "connection indicator"

Trying to open watchface settings in Gadgetbridge results in these messages:

I'm not sure if you are taking feature requests, but I'd like to see an option to show the current battery percentage.

As a stop-gap, I changed it for myself but I'm not sure how to incorporate it into clay effectively

I was thinking of having:

1. Icon only
2. Percentage only
3. Both icon and percentage

I haven't taken enough time to come up with a good solution for last one, but if you have any ideas go for it. I'd be happy with the first two if you don't want to deal with finagling positioning of the elements. If you want an example of what I did to add the percentage, or both percentage and icon I'd be happy to share.
