    Black on Red text is hard/impossible to read - maybe make it white on red?

      I love windy but one thing I difficult with the interface is the black on red text for high wind speeds in the forecast. I also find the fact I can’t make the forecast section bigger on the app (ios) difficult.

      Any chance you could adapt the text to change to a lighter colour when it is on the red background? I have some experience in User Interface design and this is what we usually do. It is not too hard to work out a good contrasting colour as the intensity of the background colour changes.

      With thanks in advance,

      Geoff

          I agree that in some cases the text is nearly impossible to read. Especially on the mobile application. The font doesn't change from black when displaying over darker colors.

          In the example below on my PC, I can read the wind gust text alright. Scale that down on the phone and outside, I can't see it at all.
