Starting out with an empty location list felt a little confusing. Is there a fast way to add the current location? Maybe that should be the default, if the location list is empty?
Once I add a location, I see a "Not Observed" message on the top right and a missing graphic(?) "N/A" on the top left. It's not clear what these mean until I add more locations and get one that works. It looks like that should read "Sunny" with a graphic?
The UI suggests a "pull to refresh" interface: there's a spinner. But it wasn't clear to me whether or not it did anything. Maybe some extra text alongside "Issued: %d minutes ago" for the refresh state? Similar for the parent view.
Can the display of atmospheric pressure also indicate whether pressure is rising or falling?
The displays for wind, pressure, etc. suggest that they might do something when tapped. Maybe drill down to charts?
The settings icon is on the top left. I tend to look for it on the top right, but maybe that's just me.
