WEATHER BOARDS
Drop a live weather widget onto any board to show current conditions and temperature for any location. The flaps update as conditions change, so a glance at the TV tells you the forecast without reaching for a phone — fork a template and set your city.
A kitchen command center that flips today's date, live Chicago weather, and a next-up countdown through the family's day — 7:45 school run, 3:20 pickup, 6:00 soccer, 8:30 wind-down — with a reminder ticker for lunches, practice, and trash night. Families mount it on the kitchen TV or a spare monitor so the whole household reads one schedule at breakfast.
An airport gate board for gate B12 showing flight 204 to Chicago boarding and flight 318 to Denver on time, with a boarding-closes countdown and live Chicago weather underneath. Built for travel-agency lobbies, aviation-themed bars, and event check-ins that want real departure-hall atmosphere. The gate number, both flight rows, and every status word are editable after forking.
A hotel lobby display that welcomes guests with the property name, live local weather, and the current time in a classic split-flap style. Beneath "the grand hotel" headline, a weather widget shows Miami conditions and a clock keeps lobby time, with check-in hours and the concierge extension in muted footer lines. It reads like the arrivals board of a grand rail terminal.
An office lobby welcome board that greets visitors with your company name, today's date, live local weather, and the current time on a reception TV. Muted lines beneath the split-flap headline hold the guest Wi-Fi network and check-in instructions, so front-desk questions answer themselves. Built at 11 rows by 40 columns for the wide screens common behind reception desks.
A calm ambient scene that drifts weather-styled particles across a 12x44 split-flap grid in a cool palette at gentle intensity. It suits hotel lobbies, spa relaxation rooms, and waiting areas that want quiet motion rather than messaging. Style, palette, density, speed, and intensity are adjustable, and it pairs well between informational scenes.
A high-contrast alert board that flips status messages like "all clear" or "shelter in place" in red, alongside live local weather and instruction lines such as "use stairwells" and "meet at north lot." Facilities teams keep it as a standby scene for office, school, and venue TVs. Every status and instruction is editable after forking.
A bedside split-flap clock board that flips the current time, today's date, and local Los Angeles weather above a rotating morning routine ticker. It hangs on a bedroom or hallway TV as a calmer alternative to a phone alarm dashboard. Fork it, swap in your own city, and edit reminders like "leave by 8:15" to match your mornings.
A race progress board cycling leader bibs 2041, 118, and 742, a mile-20 progress bar at 76% of the course, live Boston weather, and a finish-area ticker covering the chute, mile-22 water, and the med tent. Race expos, cheer stations, and run clubs use it to give spectators a live sense of where the field is between sightings.
A game day board counting down to kickoff with live Philadelphia weather and a rotating fan ticker — doors open 5pm, wear home colors, tailgate lot C. Schools, arenas, bars, and fan caves run it through the week before a big matchup so the countdown builds in the room. Change one target date and the whole board points at your next game.
A bus arrivals board that cycles routes 12 downtown, 19 crosstown, and 42 express, counts down to the next bus, and shows live Seattle weather above an orange service-alerts ticker. Built for transit lobbies, campus shuttle stops, and apartment buildings near a stop. Alerts like "use rear doors" and "detour on pine" flip through on their own dedicated row.
A coworking space welcome board with today's date, local weather, the member Wi-Fi network, and a rotating community announcements ticker. Defaults greet members over Austin weather and flip through notes like the founder lunch at noon and Friday's demo night. Put it at the entrance so members catch events they would otherwise miss in a buried Slack channel.
A spa availability board that shows the next open appointment slot, local weather, and a rotating list of today's treatments on a lobby screen. A next-opening widget cycles through slots like 10:15 and 14:30, Palm Springs weather sits alongside, and a quiet ticker flips through deep tissue, facials, and sauna hours. Walk-ins see exactly when they can be seen.
An executive daily briefing board that combines the current time, local weather, month-to-date revenue, and a rotating focus list on one office TV. Defaults show a live clock, New York weather, $812k MTD, and a ticker cycling through priorities like renewals, hiring, and launch readiness. A leader gets the day's picture in one glance instead of five dashboards.
How the weather widget works on a split-flap board
The weather widget shows current conditions and temperature for a city you pick, refreshing itself on an interval — no feed to wire, no API key to manage. Set the location and units on a forked template and the flaps update as conditions change through the day. Add one widget per city for a multi-location row, each flipping independently. Because it renders in the browser, the same widget scales from a small corner tile to a full-screen temperature board on any TV.
Weather rarely carries a board alone; it anchors one. The classic pairing is a clock row above and today's schedule below — the morning-glance board a kitchen or office lobby actually uses. Keep the temperature in large cells and the condition text short, and give the widget a full row rather than cramming it beside dense content. Units, colors, and sizing are all editable on the fork, so a beach-house board can run bright while a hotel lobby version stays muted and typographic.
Boards worth building with it: a household morning board with weather, clock, and a leave-by countdown; a hotel or coworking lobby board pairing local conditions with today's events; a multi-city operations board with a weather row per office beside each team's world clock; and an event-day board where the forecast sits over the venue schedule. All run in any TV browser — fork a template, set the cities, and going live starts at $8/mo for one display.

Can I show weather for more than one city?
Yes. Add a weather widget per location and the board flips conditions and temperatures for each side by side.
How often does the weather refresh?
The widget polls live weather data on a set interval, flipping new temperatures and conditions as they update.
Can I combine weather with other widgets?
Absolutely. Place it beside a clock, schedule, or KPI board and customize text, size, and colors to match the layout.
What do I need to run a weather board on a TV?
Any device that opens a URL: a smart TV browser, Chromecast, Fire TV, or Apple TV. The widget renders in the browser at 60 FPS, so an existing screen becomes the weather display with no signage player or wiring.
Does a weather board cost anything?
Building and previewing is free, so you can set your city, units, and colors first. Playing the board live on a screen starts at $8/mo on Starter for one display — the weather widget itself refreshes automatically on any paid plan.
