About this widget

Forecast shows what the weather is about to do, as a strip of up to five slots. Pick hours and it reads Now plus the hours ahead; pick days and it reads Today plus the days ahead. Each slot carries the time or the weekday, a matching icon, and the temperature, with the day's low next to the high in days mode. The data comes from Open-Meteo, so there is no account and no API key.

Set the city, choose hours or days, choose how many slots to show, and in hours mode choose how far apart they sit: one, two, three or six hours, so five slots can reach a day and a half ahead. Celsius or Fahrenheit, a refresh interval from 10 to 180 minutes, and the usual solid, transparent, bare or image panel styles are all settings, and clicking the place name jumps straight to the city field. The strip lays out as a row in a wide tile and stacks into rows in a tall one, so it reads either way.
