Can we consider using Emoji in the status bar to represent the weather?

the following are Emoji symbols representing weather:

Sunny: ☀️, 🌞, 🔆 Cloudy: ☁️, ⛅, 🌥️ Partly cloudy: 🌥️ Rainy: 🌧️, ⛈️, 🌦️, ☔ Snowy: 🌨️, ❄️, ⛄, ☃️ Tornado: 🌪️ Typhoon: 🌀 Rainbow: 🌈 Foggy: 🌫️ Windy: 🌬️ Thermometer: 🌡️ Some symbols have slight differences:

☀️ represents a completely cloudless sun. 🌞 represents a smiling sun. 🔆 represents a high brightness button and can be used to represent intense sunlight. ☁️ represents a cloud and can be used to represent cloudy or overcast weather. ⛅ represents a sun partially covered by clouds. 🌥️ represents a sun partially covered by clouds, and can be used to represent partly cloudy weather. 🌧️ represents rain, with raindrops falling from a cloud. ⛈️ represents a cloud with lightning and rain. 🌦️ represents changing weather from sunny to rainy or vice versa. ☔ represents an umbrella and can be used to represent rainy weather. 🌨️ represents snowfall, with snowflakes falling from a cloud. ❄️ represents a single snowflake. ⛄ represents a snowman. ☃️ represents a snowman and snowflakes. 🌪️ represents a tornado and can be used to represent extreme weather conditions such as storms. 🌀 represents a typhoon or vortex shape and can also be used to represent dizziness.

Great suggestion. I will be adding this option soon. Thanks for the list also, that is very helpful.

Done. Added in release v1.5.0 To use just add %desc-em% into your statusbar text and it will be replaced with the corresponding emoji. I tried to match emojis as close to the actual conditions as possible although there are no emojis for a couple of the possible conditions. In those cases I just used the closest available emoji.

[1.5.0] 2022-03-18

Added

• Weather Description Emojis
  • Macro %desc-em% will be replaced with an emoji of the current weather description
