About Notchcast Weather

Notchcast transforms the notch on your laptop into a beautiful, living weather display. Watch real-time animated weather conditions: rain, snow, lightning, fog, stars, and sunshine - rendered right alongside your menu bar.

Your current temperature and conditions are always visible at a glance, without opening an app or checking a widget. Notchcast lives entirely in your menu bar with zero desktop clutter.

  • Swipe to the 10-day view for a color-coded temperature range forecast

Features:

  • Hourly forecast cards with per-hour weather gradients and mini particle effects
  • 10-day forecast with temperature range visualization
  • Quick location switching directly from the notch
  • Search-as-you-type location finder with recent locations
