The Weather Channel's accuracy has improved, but its vibes have changed. A dedicated online community has created a free service, WeatherStar 4000+, offering retro graphics and smooth tunes with up-to-date forecasts.
There is simply no real match to that distinctly minimalist, retro-rudimentary look of forecasts from the 1980s, 90s, and early 2000s.
This DIY project aims to recreate The Weather Channel's 90's look and feel, providing actual forecast information.
