A bit to be desired

This app fills a niche that has been left unfilled in weather apps, and I'm a huge fan of the concept. However, there are two main issues with this app: 1) A paid app with a premium upgrade. Given that I'm already paying for the app, it is a bit disingenuous to push a $3.99 upgrade in-app. It should be either free with an upgrade option or somewhere in the middle (e.g. $1.99) for everything— initial download included. 2) A huge thing that is missing is humidity being factored in as a "running condition". I live in a humid city, and it is essentially impossible to run when humidity is higher than 70% (and very difficult above 60%). Skin precipitation makes it impossible to vent in these conditions, and I would argue humidity is more important than temperature as it needs to exceed ~95° for temp to be an issue. However, the app doesn't factor in humidity— and could very well tell me to "run now" in 80% humidity. As a suggestion: The app could also use a tool that tells you what to wear based on preferences. As a basic app, it's okay, but not worth any money without additional functionality.
