It's good, however, I live in Australia so "tomorrow's forecast" is actually today's as we are ahead by about 15hrs. Please add a setting to choose a timezone. Also, when viewing a full forecast report, it would be nice of the text items on the left like wind direction, swell direction etc, stayed put while the information for each corresponding day is able to slide like it is now.
