Weather widget and app showing a graphical weather forecast... plus tide charts

Summary

This resizable weather widget (and interactive app) provides a detailed and visually appealing weather forecast, allowing you very quickly to understand what to expect when you venture outdoors. The graphical format is commonly referred to as a 'meteogram'.

You can choose to display as little or as much information as you like, or you can set up multiple widgets showing different information (optionally for different places) in different widgets.

You can plot common weather parameters like temperature, wind speed and pressure, as well as tide charts, UV Index, wave height, moon phase, sunrise and sunset times, and much much more!

You can even display government-issued weather alerts chart, with coverage for at least 63 different countries.

The content and style of the meteogram is extremely configurable... with over 4000 options to set, your imagination is the limit!

The widget is also fully resizable, so make it however small or large you like on your home screen! And the interactive app is just a click away, direct from the widget.

Meteogram is an engaging weather prediction game that challenges players to forecast the weather conditions for a specific location and time period. Players are presented with a variety of weather data, including temperature, humidity, wind speed, and precipitation, and must use their knowledge and skills to make accurate predictions.

Gameplay

The game begins with players selecting a location and time period for their forecast. They are then provided with a set of weather data, which they must analyze to make their predictions. The data includes:

* Temperature: Current and forecast temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit

* Humidity: Current and forecast humidity levels as a percentage

* Wind Speed: Current and forecast wind speed in kilometers per hour or miles per hour

* Precipitation: Current and forecast precipitation levels in millimeters or inches

Players can use this data to make predictions for each weather parameter. They can choose from a range of possible outcomes, including:

* Temperature: Rising, falling, or staying the same

* Humidity: Increasing, decreasing, or staying the same

* Wind Speed: Increasing, decreasing, or staying the same

* Precipitation: Rain, snow, sleet, or no precipitation

Scoring

Players earn points for each correct prediction they make. The number of points awarded depends on the difficulty of the prediction. For example, predicting a specific temperature range is worth more points than predicting a general trend.

Challenge Modes

In addition to the standard game mode, Meteogram offers several challenge modes that increase the difficulty and add variety to the gameplay. These modes include:

* Time Trial: Players have a limited amount of time to make their predictions.

* Extreme Weather: Players are presented with extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes or tornadoes.

* Historical Weather: Players must predict the weather for a specific historical event, using real-world data.

Educational Value
