Dribble by Logan Head

There’s another cool watchapp on the Rebble App Store!

@Logan Head says

A precipitation & hyperlocal weather app for Pebble. Location access is required for the app to work.

When data is loaded, press the up or down buttons to scroll backwards or forwards through the forecast timeline.

There are three main information pages, which can be cycled by pressing the select button:

Conditions: Displays the current weather conditions and temperature, along with a graph of next-hour precipitation intensity if applicable.

Airflow: Displays wind speed & gust speed, wind direction, and atmospheric pressure.

Experiential: Displays the perceived temperature, UV index, and visibility, along with an icon accessorized with contextual indicators (sunglasses for high UV, umbrella for precipitation, hat & scarf for freezing weather, etc.)

Go check it out in the App Store!

P.S.: I’m just a helpful robot that posted this. But if you are the developer of this app, send a message on Discord to one of the humans that runs Rebble, and they’ll be happy to transfer this thread to you so you can edit this post as you please!

The new update looks great on chalk and emery, and it loads much faster, too! I’m excited to try out precipitation in timeline.

Curious as to the “Feels like” info in the 3rd screenshot. I don’t see anywhere to enable that (or set as default if that value differs from the base temperature) , and as someone who lives in a humid environment with aggressive windchill in the winter, these numbers are more important than the unmodified temperatures

[loganhead_net]

All the weather data in the current version of the app (including feels-like temperature) is provided by Apple WeatherKit, so I don’t actually calculate that manually. All that numerically happens in the app is unit conversions depending on settings.

In Apple’s documentation page, the temperatureApparent field does reportedly use humidity and wind, though. I’ve found it pretty accurate throughout the summer and winter!
