Hourly forecast
Hey! Thanks for this app.
Do you maybe think its worth to implement an hourly overview for todays forecast? I personally would really like that. E.g. when I see it is not raining now but the next forecast in 3 hours shows raining, I would like to see when it begins to rain.
I think this was partly suggested before in #334. Problem is, our (free) API access only provides 3-hourly updates. Closing, I'm afraid.
@mario-g98 Interesting, apparently OWM have changed their price structure. I'd accept any PR which implements hourly updates. Maybe a user option for 1/3hrs, I'm not sure everyone needs hourly precision?

I think it's pretty useful, especially for checking when exactly it's going to rain.
What about implementing a more compact view of the hour updates (I think hourly wind and pressure info is not so needed).
Example:
Edit: I think a good way of dealing with this would be to have different precisions for the different days, as given in the OWM table I posted above - hourly forecast for the next 24/48 hours and daily forecast for the next 7 days (similar to #497 ).
different precisions for the different days
Yes that's an interesting proposal, worth considering
Tbh I'm doubtful of the accuracy of forecasts at one hour precision for the current day, but for three days out.....
Another + of the hourly forecast is that the 3-hours one doesn't always give good overview of (for example) how high and when the max temp of the day will be.
