Once upon a time I relied on ForecasWatch as the daily driver watchface on my beloved red Pebble Time. Recently, the free tier of the Weather Underground API on which the watchface relied was discontinued, making a huge portion of the watchface unusable.
The developer, RCY, is nowhere to be found in the Rebble era. I plan to continue using my Pebble(s) for years to come, so this is my attempt to revive this wonderful watchface—and this time it's open source!

* Using a hacky workaround
All rectangular watches are supported (Classic, Steel, Time, Time Steel, Pebble 2).
A stable release is was made available on the Rebble store thanks to @joshua. Click here for the store page.
For more cutting-edge features, download the latest forecaswatch2.pbw
release. On Android you can use Cx File Explorer to open this file through the Pebble app.
While I use the SDK natively for development, I suggest using the Pebble SDK Docker image hosted here to avoid the headache of installation. I use this image in my Travis CI builds.
You can create a file src/pkjs/dev-config.js
to set values for Clay keys (for convenience), e.g.
var darkSkyApiKey = 'abc123';
module.exports.darkSkyApiKey = darkSkyApiKey;
