Breezy Weather - A Fork of the Outdated but Excellent Geometric Weather (github.com)

The first alpha was just released and is only available on Github at the moment. The dev has been active in contributing to Geometric Weather after the main developer of it disappeared. It looks like he decided to just fork it and make his own thing!

I tried Geometric Weather for a while. I appreciated that it actually had everything I'm looking for in a weather app: up-to-date data, a widget and severe weather alerts in notifications, though I moved on from it because those notifications would keep popping up every time the app refreshed the data. That issue was being worked on when the main dev vanished. I'm sure this fork will take care of it, and I'll be watching for when it drops on F-Droid.
