FAQ
How often is the weather updated?
It shows the forecast for the current hour (at 14:25, the 14:00 forecast). Every 6 hours it fetches the next 24 hours, and at midnight the forecast for the next 4 days.
What if the player goes offline?
It keeps the weather for 6 hours after loading. Without internet the first time, it doesn’t show; if it’s offline for over 12 hours since the last update, it hides.
Where does the data come from?
From a weather data service.
