We have also introduced a new section in the calendar to keep track of moon phases over the next 28 days, extending what was previously available in the Marine & Tides section.
Minor bug fixes and updates for continued improvement of performance
Introducing the new hourly "forecast scroller" that provides a quick and scannable alternative to the hourly graphs. This includes details of forecasted rain amounts for each hour, as chance of rain on its own provides no indication of intensity. You can tap on the forecast scroller to collapse/expand it depending on how much detail you prefer to see.
As always, most sections on the Home Tab can be turned on/off. Let us know what you think of the experience!
• The data in the Observation (Now) Panel can be reordered. Go to Menu > Settings > Observation Panel and drag the items in the list to suit your preference.
