About this website
The current design of this website is determined by an algorithm. It uses live weather and astronomy data from our location in Oxford, UK to create a unique & unrepeatable composition.
Wind
The wind speed is 5mph, so the typography is a little bit distorted.
Time
It's 04:40 – this determines the primary colour and the position of the gradient, and because it's daylight the colour is light rather than dark. Today's date, the 6th of December 2024 causes the contrast to shift and the gradient is rotated too. The gradient is also affected by sunrise at 08:01 and sunset at 15:51.
UV
The UV index is 0.3 so the colours are not very saturated.
Weather
The condition is Rain so the composition is very blurry, the gradient is darker and less saturated. There's a 75% cloud layer to match the sky.
