Dumb Question... what do the bars actually mean?

vaderag opened this issue · comments

I don't quite know where to post this, but I don't see it explained anywhere...
I love the look of this, but what do the bars on each day actually mean?

So this part - what does it indicate?

Seems to be temperature related, but what of the greyed bits? What does the circle indicate (maybe time? But it's 5pm here and mine is at the end?)

Thanks!

The bars represent the temperature range for the day.

In your above image, the 9° on Thursday represents the low across all of the forecast days and the 21° represents the highs (i.e. all bars are from 9° to 21°).

The colored portion of the bar represents the range of temperatures that are forecast for that day (so 12° to 21° on Monday).

The circle represents the current temperature (16° or roughly midway between 12° and 21° in your case).

I love this card for that reason because it makes it very easy to see a "mostly hot day" versus a "mostly cold day"

It also makes it easy for me to be jealous of your temperate climate, as mine does not look so welcoming 🤣

Awesome, thanks for the great explanation!

And sadly that is not my temperature - I took it from the GitHub page... 🤣
0°c here right now 😂
