Improve Tempest Station UI
I have owned a couple of Tempest Weather Stations over the years and as much as I loved them, I always felt that not having a dedicated screen was a bit of a let down. I first used the Tempest URL that WeatherFlow provides, but it is plain and not setup how I would prefer. I decided to build my own site that would both be a full blown weather page - plus an additional URL for Tempest Devices. Some of the highlights of the Tempest page is it auto updates (both backend data and new versions of the app), solar events, weather graph (with precip, temp, and wind), forecast, high-res radar, data points that include AQI, pressure, UV, lightning, and more. One of the more unique aspects is that it also has an animated background that represents the current weather. Clouds move. The sun 'rises' and 'sets', the moon also does this, lightning, snow, etc. Just about any weather will be shown. Rain falls, and lightning flashes :) There is also a weather alert system built in that will auto clear after some time (but still show a plus sign that there is an unread alert). It also has a built in override for non-Tempest users - or if your Tempest is down or loses its connection, it will gather weather from your area and from other weather sources via several different APIs. It works in portrait and landscape mode and is tuned for 10", 15" and 22" devices. Check it out when you get a chance and let me know if you have any requests for changes or new features. Will gather feedback and work to continue to improve. The URL is https://myweatherdesk.com/mytempest and you can email me your feedback or requests at myweatherdesk00@gmail.com Thanks! - Wade
