v2.1.0 — Lens flares, moon phases, fog & more

🌟 Nimbus Weather Card v2.1.0

✨ What's new

☀️ Lens flares with parallax effect

Sun now has beautiful lens flares that float with a subtle parallax animation — closer flares stay still, farther ones drift independently, just like looking at the sun through a lens.

🌙 Moon improvements

• Moon is now in a fixed position (no more arc movement)
• Moon phase shadow correctly mirrors for Southern Hemisphere users
• 5 latitude zones available: Arctic, Northern Temperate, Tropical, Southern Temperate, Antarctic
• Moon correctly hides when the sun is above the horizon

🌫️ Fog animation

Fog now uses canvas-based animation with layered mist that drifts across the card — much more visible and atmospheric.

☁️ Canvas clouds

Clouds for all conditions (cloudy, lightning, windy, etc.) are now rendered on canvas for better performance and visual quality.

🌧️ Meteor-style raindrops

Rain drops now have a bright head and transparent tail — like meteors falling through the sky.

⚡ Lightning fixes

• Plain lightning condition no longer shows rain splashes
• Lightning bolts now appear at correct intervals
• Clouds correctly appear for lightning conditions

🌍 Latitude zone for moon orientation

New config option latitude_zone to correctly orient the moon phase shadow based on your location:

• arctic · northern_temperate · tropical · southern_temperate · antarctic

🇳🇱 Nederlands language support

Thanks to dverbrugge8 for the Dutch translation!

🔧 Bug fixes

• Fixed z-index issue causing card to overlap other dashboard elements
• Humidity field now hidden when not provided by weather integration
• Moon no longer visible when sun is above horizon
• Fog layers now correctly visible (were behind background before)
