My web app plots hourly dew point for the next 24 hours, next 7 days, and past 2 days. (Still WIP.)
Inspired by https://merrysky.net (can also plot dew point), which was inspired by Dark Sky.

Sadly, Naver stopped showing the past weather like that.
This was one of the main motivations for creating UltraWeather: https://github.com/Leftium/ultra-weather#readme
UltraWeather was missing some features like AQI and minutely rain predictions (coming soon!) so I made WeatherSense ^^
Also the toggle on hover for the day selection is not easy on desktop and very hard on mobile. I'd prefer a simple toggle.
I picked the Watercolor map style[1] because it looked pretty and the detail from other styles wasn't needed (like street names).
Then I picked The Weather Channel radar color scheme[2] because the green-to-red gradients seemed to contrast well with the Watercolor map style.
What map style/radar color scheme combination would you prefer? Perhaps I can make this configurable... (Is there any chance there simply was no precipitation on your map?)

I am not sure what you mean by "toggle on hover." Hover is meant to work without any toggling.
The yellow line indicates which stats are currently being shown.
Ideally, when the mouse cursor is over a timeline, it shows the stats for that time. Otherwise the stats for the current condition are shown.
Sometimes the hover is a little buggy; click + dragging on the timeline or click + dragging outside a timeline usually fixes it.
Usually it works better on mobile! If your finger is touching a timeline, that is considered hovering. Otherwise the current stats are shown.
The new one is way better. I'd like to see the streets and city names if possible because with just the watercolor I feel like I'm missing infos.
That should make the colored radar data easier to see!

1. Go to https://www.weather.gov/
2. Put your zip code into the Local forecast box.
3. Click the Hourly Weather Forecast graph on the right side.
4. Bookmark it.
EDIT: NVM, found it. You tap the temperature.
EDIT 2: It really ought to remember the units. 95% of the planet doesn't ever want to see Fahrenheit.
Eventually other unit types will also be implemented. URL params and cookies will also be added for persistence.
Right now, I chose to default to the most "sensible" units:
- Fahrenheit for temperature
- Millimeters per hour for precipitation
WeatherSense is still a work-in-progress!

Also: WeatherSense is designed to be used without numbers. Get a feel for the readings by looking at the shape of the plots and comparing to the current/past conditions.
- The past three hours are shown in the 24 hour timeline
- The timelines for the past two days are shown
- (rendered slightly lighter/transparently)
Up to 92 past days can be shown, but this is currently hard-coded[1] and not configurable (yet).
