Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces a new applet named "Ground Temperature," aimed at providing essential weather insights for lawn and gardening enthusiasts. The app displays current soil and air temperatures, alongside upcoming precipitation totals for the next 6, 12, and 24 hours. It intelligently sources weather data, prioritizing the National Weather Service (NWS) API for enhanced precipitation accuracy in the US, and defaulting to Open-Meteo for other regions or if NWS data is unavailable. Users can customize their location, preferred temperature units, and the specific soil depth for temperature readings.

Highlights

• New Applet Introduction: Implemented a new 'Ground Temperature' applet designed to provide lawn-focused weather conditions.
• Weather Data Integration: Integrated with the Open-Meteo API to fetch soil temperature, air temperature, and general precipitation data.
• Enhanced Precipitation Accuracy: Added logic to fetch more accurate quantitative precipitation forecast (QPF) data for US locations from the National Weather Service (NWS) API, with Open-Meteo serving as a fallback.
• User Configuration Options: Provided configurable options for users to set their location, preferred temperature units (Fahrenheit or Celsius), and desired soil depth (0cm, 6cm, or 18cm) for readings.
• Display and UI: Designed a user interface to clearly display current soil and air temperatures, along with 6-hour, 12-hour, and 24-hour precipitation forecasts.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a new "Ground Temp" app that displays soil temperature, air temperature, and rainfall metrics. The review identified several areas for improvement: the rain_column function hardcodes the precipitation unit, which will lead to incorrect display for Celsius units, and includes an unnecessary explicit font setting. Additionally, unused constants and functions (DIGITS, get_daily_value, sum_days, format_rain) should be removed for code cleanliness. The manifest.yaml also contains a redundant and non-standard wide 2x support tag.
