Highlighting in AeroWeather – Behavian's fortress

Background

AeroWeather is a very handy app when flying, as it could list and get weather of multiple airports at once.

I just recently discovered that, under Settings -> Format -> Highlight Keywords, we can highlight adverse weather using regular expression!

If you want to build your own keyword, strongly recommend to use some sort of regex sandbox.

I will put my keywords into multiple sections, for easier copying to your iOS devices!

The color of the first word, is my current setting in AeroWeather, which I recommend you to try out!

Highlights wind (including gust) >= 20KT or 10MPS

[0-9G]*[2-9]\dKT, [0-9G]*[1-9]\dMPS
