@0-5-0 great idea. Not much snow this days so never really saw that :P will try to find a place to test it with
Thank you :), I searched a bit for snowy places and found these:
Aomori (JP), Sapporo (JP), Toyama (JP), St. John's Newfoundland (CA), also St. Moritz (CH).
Some have rain coming but hopefully the timing is just right when you have a chance to look at it :P
@0-5-0 it is now fixed in the new version on github
I noticed using St. John's Newfoundland as a test, when it's mixed precipitation rain and snow on the same day there's only one icon showing up in the list at the bottom, not one for rain and a second for snow so I think it's adding the mm of rain + cm of snow strangely.
It's showing 19.3mm 100% with the snow icon for St. John's today but looking at the hourly there's a mix of both rain and snow. Not sure if a separate icon for rain and snow would have to be added down in the list?
GFS Global is what I used to test.
@0-5-0 yes i use only one data. I show the total precipitation (snow+rain). as for the icon it chooses snow if there is some. Not sure i want to add 2 icons. Uses a lot of space and not add that much. You ll get the details in the hourly view
Unless one mixed precipitation icon would do in that case?
you mean having an icon representing precipitation and snow at the same time ?
Exactly, for days where it's forecasting both rain and snow with a small snow flake and small rain drop maybe in the same icon.
@0-5-0 ok that i can do. i ll see if i find the right icon
I tried to find "something" icon wise, just looking for an icon that might show a large snowflake with a large rain drop separated by / ... aside from that I think "sleet" might be a common term but it's always paired with a cloud so might not fit the design.
I found these interesting general icon sets.

@0-5-0 awesome ! really like the animated weather icons. Might try to add that to the app!
i actually created a new icon. Just need to implement it now
The one you made looks perfect, simple and very clear :)
Would it be possible to display CM for snow instead of MM? Millimeters work great for rain but it seems snow is better represented in centimeters if this data is available from the providers.
