Peepometer - a Retro Weather App by swackett at Mac App Store analyse

A classic, hand-crafted weather observation app created by swackett (as seen on NBCs TODAY Show).

Peepometer 1000 is an elegant weather observation instrument with a retro, 1950s-era feel. Replicating the look and feel of a mechanical device in every detail, Peepometers vintage gauges and dials are faithfully reproduced in stunning high resolution.

And of course, Peepometer is designed specifically for retina display in the new iPad. Peepometer 1000 will transport you back to time when meteorologists, the aviation industry, and weather enthusiasts around the world used mechanical gauges and dials to observe weather conditions.
