Review of "Weather Prime" version 5

Details Page Preview

Weather Prime brings a polished, full-featured weather station to your GNOME top bar. A clean pill shows current conditions at a glance, and a single click opens a rich, tabbed drop-down packed with everything from live radar to tide times. ☀️ CURRENT CONDITIONS • Temperature, feels-like, humidity, wind, gusts, dew point, visibility, and cloud cover • Barometric pressure with a smart trend arrow that hints at incoming weather • Last-24h precipitation total with an hour-by-hour sparkline, plus a separate snowfall depth when it's snowing 📈 FORECASTS • Hourly — a 12-hour outlook with temperature, precipitation chance, humidity, and wind • 7-Day — daily highs and lows, precipitation, humidity, and wind, plus a plain-language daily narrative for US locations (NWS, keyless) 🌬️ AIR QUALITY • Pick AirNow (US EPA AQI per pollutant), OpenWeatherMap (global 1–5 AQI plus all eight pollutants), or Open-Meteo PM2.5 / PM10 • Automatic source fallback so you always see a reading 🌙 ASTRONOMY • Sunrise and sunset, moonrise and moonset, moon phase, and illumination — no key required • Solar noon plus the dates of the next new and full moon (keyless USNO data) • Optional tide line showing today's high and low times (NOAA, US coastal, keyless) 🗺️ LIVE RADAR MAP • Animated RainViewer precipitation radar (past frames + nowcast) layered over Esri satellite imagery • Play/pause control; one click launches Windy, Zoom Earth, Ventusky, RainViewer, Weather.com, Wunderground, or NWS Radar for full interactivity ⚠️ SEVERE-WEATHER ALERTS • Live NWS alerts surface automatically for US locations, complete with the full alert text ⚙️ MADE YOUR WAY • Auto-locate via GeoClue2, or set your spot manually with built-in city search • Theme follows your system light/dark setting — or pin it the way you like • Panel sits left, center, or right at original, medium (1.25×), or large (1.5×) size — and the drop-down can hang from the pill or pin to any corner, edge, or center of the screen • Independently configurable refresh cadence for weather, air quality, and radar ✨ Works out of the box — no API keys, no signup, no fees. Optional free keys from WeatherAPI.com, WeatherAI.io, AirNow, and OpenWeatherMap unlock the extra providers whenever you want them.
