## What is RetroWeather?

RetroWeather is minimal weather with personality. Pick a look you love — CRT terminal, Game Boy, NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Commodore 64, PlayStation, arcade, Neo Geo, Dreamcast VMU, or VHS synthwave — then glance at NOW, NEXT, and WEEK without radar clutter or news feeds.

FEATURES
• Three calm tabs: current conditions, 12-hour hourly, and 7-day week
• Smart headline: rain timing, temperature swings, and what matters today
• Eleven retro themes and alternate app icons
• Save multiple cities — home, work, travel
• Location-based weather with full forecast tabs
• Push notifications: morning digest, smart highlights (rain, heat, wind, UV, swings), and severe weather alerts
• Notification voice: Calm or playful Retro style
• Home Screen widgets (small, medium, large) and Lock Screen widgets
