Weather forecast on 24 rather than 12 hours

Can you enrich the Toybox.Weather.getHourlyForecast() to give a forecast for 24 hours instead of 12 hours? 

Why we need a full day / 24 hours weather forecast? 

  1. in the morning, you need to know if there won't be a rain the whole day till the evening
  2. often you want to check weather for tomorrow to prepare before you go to sleep

Thanks for considering. This would make it finally usable.

    Creative reply:) Nobody tries to get through the whole polar day by a single activity without sleeping though:) And that's the point. BTW when we were travelling in the polar day in Norway, our biological day (the time after we got naturally tired) was 26 hours long (including 8 hours sleep).  

    If you travel 100 km away, you probably need to evaluate more detailed weather to plan multi day trip. Something that you hardly fit to the watch. The watch is good for the easily accessible daily re-assurance how the next day will look like.

    Thank you Travis. Really appreciated. Despite the fact it seems we don't agree on importance of it, I hope it will get finally through.
