Description

Cryptic weather watchface, based on my "Balloons" watchface (I couldn't resist the name "Weather Balloons").

Minute balloon floating within an hour balloon - "tails" (lines) from each pointing towards the appropriate markers telling the time.  Colour of hour balloon reflects day/night (based on sunrise/sunset).

Choice of weather providers: OpenWeatherMap, Forecast.io or Weather Underground.  As with many other weather watchfaces, you need to get a free API key from the weather provider you want to use.  All give at least 500 free calls per day (far more than needed). Until API key provided, weather icon & temperature areas are blank.

To get key, register at one of these:
 OWM: https://home.openweathermap.org/users/sign_up
 Forecast.io: https://developer.forecast.io/register
 Weather Underground: https://www.wunderground.com/member/registration 
 (select Columus Plan to get forecast info)

All find weather for current latitude/longitude.

Temperature appears in minute balloon (Farenheit or Celcius), weather icon within hour balloon. 
  
With Forecast.io & Weather Underground, option to present balloons with forecast for today & next 4 days on a shake of the wrist.  The "tails" are in hour analog positions (0 for today, 1 for tomorrow etc).

Balloons can be ordered:
- Rising: Today highest, then tomorrow etc
- Analog: Arranged around face in analog sequence

For Quick Views, location name and forecast inhibited.
