Clicking again on the current conditions displays a rich, animated panel with additional information, including:

You can also tap on any day's forecast to see a full 24 hour temperature and precipitation chart, along with an hour-by-hour sky condition chart. You can also tap on the radar icon to view an interactive, animated global radar map provided by Forecast.io.
By tapping on the location name, you can have up to 5 recent locations, as well as a Current Location choice to always use automatic location finding. By default, Forecast Bar will automatically detect which units to use for your location, or lets you override them.
Forecast Bar offers full support for light and dark menu bar modes, and carefully conserves your computer's power. You can even fully customize what shows in your menu bar, or assign a global keyboard shortcut to show Forecast Bar any time!
IN-APP PURCHASES
Forecast Bar provides you with a complete, fully featured weather app that updates every hour. Since we use Forecast.io, a premium weather provider, we have to pay for each request. If you would prefer more frequent updates (10, 15 or 30 minutes), we have added the ability to upgrade within the app to these frequencies.
This is entirely optional; Forecast Bar will remain functional without any additional purchases or subscriptions of any kind.
