Feature request: "Feels like" temperature

nekohayo opened this issue · 1 comments

Trying out this extension on Fedora 39, I think it's pretty nice to have the temperature right on the panel at all times, instead of needing to open GNOME Weather. However, the temperature is not as useful as it could be for nordic and windy countries.

Up here, we have two temperatures: the one from the thermometer, and the apparent ("Feels like") temperature, i.e. the temperature you actually feel with humidity, wind and solar radiation taken into account:

I think it would be more meaningful to use "Feels like" (when available) by default (if not providing an option for it).

I'd like to see the wind speed too (because I live in a very windy area), but wind is less of an issue because I can actually hear it through the windows, whereas I can't feel the temperature without going outside, and knowing this would tell me how to dress.

After the release of GNOME 46, I will start trying to add an options panel. This could be there.
