Get the weather like it’s the 90s in your browser

WeatherStar 4000+ by Matt Walsh aims to bring back the feel of the 90’s with a weather forecast that has the look and feel of The Weather Channel at that time but available in a modern way.

The project creates a simple to use interface with minimal configuration fuss. Some changes have been made to the screens available because either more or less forecast information is available today than was in the 90’s.

This project is based on the work of Mike Battaglia. It was forked from his work in August 2020. Mike Battaglia for the original project and all of the code which draws the weather displays. This code remains largely intact and was a huge amount of work to get exactly right. He’s also responsible for all of the background graphics including the maps used in the application.

You can use the application in a browser here and see the code and documentation on GitHub.
