Fun fact there will be a part 2 to the weather app experiment blog post...

The creators of Dark Sky have reentered the ring.

Going to have to see how that stacks versus my reigning experiment champ!

New ‘Acme Weather’ app from Dark Sky creators wants to fix weather apps’ biggest problem - 9to5Mac
'The Dark Sky team has launched a new weather app called "Acme Weather" for iPhone, aiming to address forecast uncertainty by offering multiple alternative predictions instead of a single forecast. Inspired by their experience with Dark Sky, which was acquired and shut down by Apple, the app incorporates advanced data sources and features like community reporting and detailed maps. Acme Weather is available for $25 annually with a two-week free trial, and an Android version is planned for the future.'

If you like particle animations as in #weatherApp windy etc, this is def to be enjoyed, though 11 years old.

The building blocks of the modelling do show... cross-fade transitions to different animations rather than zoom into detail of larger-scale one. eg the point where the spectacularly modeled #CME reaches earth doesnt engage with the earths mag field until we x-fade to model with earth in it but "parallel" particles from a now excluded sun.

I was hoping it would get to the full 3D animation of the #AMOC / gulf stream viewed from beneath the surface. But we got close-ups of the now water "particles" as bonfire-night rockets instead ;(

Một người ở Đan Mạch đã tạo dịch vụ "đặt hàng nắng" (Bestil Solskin) để đối phó với thời tiết xám xịt. Bạn "đặt" nắng cho vị trí của mình, hệ thống kiểm tra thời tiết hàng giờ. Khi nắng đến, bạn nhận SMS thông báo thời gian nắng sẽ được "giao". Ý tưởng độc đáo biến việc xem dự báo thành trải nghiệm chờ đợi thú vị!

Ứng dụng "Weather Forecast USA" ra mắt năm 2009 như một dự án học tập Android, đã đạt 10,000 lượt tải và thu về $396 từ quảng cáo. Mã nguồn mở và giao diện Material Design 3 mới giúp ứng dụng trở nên riêng tư, nhanh chóng và nhẹ nhàng để kiểm tra thời tiết từ NOAA.
