-Weather is an HTML5 application that subscribes to the AccuWeather to provide location based weather data using a simple RESTful web interface. This PoC is used to demonstrate the utilization of such services as AccuWeather and to provide a base weather application on the Tizen platform.

-===== What the app does ===== 
- 
-To launch the Weather application,​ the user touches the weather icon if it is on the top bar. This is an official Accuweather stylized sun, approved by Accuweather. The application can also be launched through the Application Screen by tapping the icon there. ​ 
-The default location that is always available is the current location, which should be provided by the geolocation feature (please see Part 4: Known Bugs, where the Tizen bug that affects the geolocation feature is further mentioned). ​ 
- 
-{{:​wiki:​wiki:?​300|}} {{ :​wiki:​wiki:?​300|}} 
- 
-Up to four other locations can be added and saved by tapping the Add Location button (+) in the lower right hand corner. Locations may be queried by city name, city name and zip/postal code, or just the zip/postal code. If the user isn’t specific enough, up to three locations will be displayed to choose from. 
-Once one or more locations have been entered, the user can delete a location by tapping the Delete Location button (-) in the lower left hand corner. The default current location cannot be deleted. 
-The Weather application features HTML5 storage to remember a user’s location choices. If the user exits the application and re-launches,​ the locations previously chosen will be displayed again. 
-To view the current conditions for a location, a user can tap the location name and the humidity, wind speed and direction, and AccuWeather’s patented RealFeel are displayed. 
- 
-To view the hourly forecast for a location, a user can swipe the location towards the right. The details for the hour, a weather icon graphic, a brief weather description,​ and the predicted hourly temperature are displayed. 
-To view the 5-day forecast, swipe towards the left. Displayed there is the day of the week including the current day (Today), the date, a brief weather summary for the day, and the predicted high and low temperature for that day. 
- 
-{{:​wiki:​wiki:?​300|}} {{ :​wiki:​wiki:?​300|}} 
- 
-Severe weather alerts are determined by whether or not forecasted weather meets or exceeds a specific threshold. The application checks the API every 5 minutes, and if an alert has been issued by the AccuWeather API, the application can interrupt other applications with a pop-up. The details displayed are a localized description such as “Severe Thunderstorms”,​ the category, the area, the source of the report, and a detailed text description.

-===== Known Bugs  ===== 
- 
-^ Issue Type  ^ Key  ^ Summary ​                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            ^ 
-| Bug         | 67   | GPS location doesn’t currently work due to a bug in Tizen IVI (TIVI-2402). Currently the geolocation in Weather is hardcoded to a set of coordinates. This will be fixed in a future release. There must also be a means to test this feature in a vehicle, such as a software driver that bridges the Tizen device to the vehicle ​ | 
-| Bug         | 19   | Severe weather alerts do not remember previously viewed alerts – alerts that have been previously dismissed will appear again at regular intervals ​  | 
-| Bug         | 68   | At times the weather will get stuck on hourly forecast. ​ This likely a result of somehow iScroll getting set to Zero width so it is not able to scroll back to the city or daily forecast ​  | 
- 
-===== Release History ​ ===== 
- 
-==== Features ​ ==== 
- 
-Weather allows a user to store up to 4 selected locations discovered through Accuweather’s API as well as providing the default or current location. Each location’s information is updated at regular intervals and provides a 5-day forecast, hourly forecast, and current conditions. Severe weather alerts are displayed if current conditions for the default location meet or exceed a certain threshold.
