Finally got around to add moon phases 🌚 and a few more cool things like ensemble forecasts, weather model selection, EU-wide rain radar, and custom app icons. 🧵 (1/X)

By tapping on the daily forecast, you can now explore different ensemble forecast from ECMWF, DWD, and NOAA. Oscar computes upper and lower bands across all members (= models runs) and an ensemble average. This visualizes different potential outcomes and a models certainty.

In settings, you can now force a specific weather model for your forecasts. I've also added a user request which allows you to highlight specific time ranges in your daily forecasts to e.g. focus on daytime temperature ranges. Pretty neat!

In a first (and to be honest still rough) attempt, I've added EUMETNET's OPERA NIMBUS product, delivering a EU-wide radar composite in 15min/ 2km resolution. I am doing extrapolation into the future to provide radar-based rain forecasts and notifications.

And last but not least, I've added some alternative app icons. These have been generated with the help of AI, so if you are a designer or enthusiast and interested in working with me on some human-made app icons, please shoot me a dm @bolte.id | On TestFlight 👉 testflight.apple.com/join/xf5iJcHh
