Hellweather: Gothic Weather

A gothic weather app for people who like their forecast dark: real weather, candlelight and stone.

Hellweather shows your real forecast over a city of iron and embers. An iron frame, a horned crest and candlelight hold the numbers: the temperature in carved stone, the hours ahead in a framed strip, five days below, and a plain line about the sky ("Clouds drift across the moon. Shadows wander.").

WHAT YOU GET
- The temperature, the sky now, humidity and wind, at a glance.
- The next hours, hour by hour, and the next five days with highs and lows.
- Embers, candle flicker and a swaying lantern, drawn live over the scene.
- Places: add any city or town, switch between them, and see each one's forecast.

OFFICIAL ALERTS (US)
National Weather Service warnings appear on the scene, with an optional notification when something severe is on its way. You can also ask for a heads-up before rain reaches your places (US radar).

Hellweather is free and has no ads. If you like it, you can leave a tip in Settings, in three sizes. A tip is just a thank-you: the app stays the same.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no ads, no trackers of ours. The app asks only for your approximate location, rounds it to about a kilometre before fetching the forecast, and keeps your places and settings on your phone. Prefer not to share it? Choose a city by name. To see where people get stuck, it sends anonymous counts of how far each visit gets, with no ID and nothing about you or your places. It says so the first time, and you can turn them off in Settings. In the EU and EEA it asks first.

Not a government app; it does not represent the National Weather Service or NOAA. Alerts come from weather.gov (https://www.weather.gov) and radar from NOAA's MRMS (https://www.nssl.noaa.gov/projects/mrms/).

Forecast data from MET Norway. Rain radar and US alerts from NOAA and the National Weather Service. There is a Tell a friend button in Settings.

Made for gothic, dark and spooky tastes, Halloween or any other night.
