Snow

Frozen precipitation physics simulator.

Marvel as it seemingly simulates the Coriolis effect, convection currents, and turbulent flow dynamics, and pulls real-time wind speed data from Winnipeg, Canada; then look at the source code and marvel again as you realize it doesn’t do any of those things! Thanks to smurfier for helping achieve the absurd performance it has.

• Magically low CPU utilization.
• Runs at 40 frames per second.

• Amount of flakes, terminal velocity, and wind force can be configured in [Variables].
• Activate the drag handle in the context menu to move to another monitor.

Skin Details & Instructions

The Snow rainmeter skin was developed and created by killall-q and was originally published on DeviantArt Dec 7, 2013.

To open up and configure any settings for the Snow theme, simply double click on the time, date or day of week.  Once clicked, you will be presented with a popup with all the settings to configure Snow to your needs.

For the Snow weather widget to work correctly, you need to set your weather code within the settings menu.

Yes, the Snow rainmeter theme does support Spotify however you won’t be able to see the progress of the song. Only the buttons (stop, pause, skip) and song name will work. To fix the progress bar issue you will need to configure the variables within the player.ini to webnowplayer or use spicetify widget.

You can resize any Snow widget (date, time, day of week text, recycle bin and Spotify) by scrolling your mouse UP and DOWN.
