A slim, always-on instrument band that draws the whole next 60 minutes as one continuous curve: where rain starts, where it peaks, where it stops, with the answer spelled out in plain text on the band's own line. Nothing is hidden behind a tap. It sits below the kWh hero and the Power Now bar, so it never takes over the dashboard.
Dry now. The curve lifts off the baseline at the marked minute, so the start reads instantly.
Curve already filled at "now"; it tapers to the baseline at the stop marker. Answer reads "Stops ~9:58".
Curve pushes through the HIGH gridline; the peak label calls the heaviest minute. Height does the work, not color.
Data. Drawn straight from the same precipNext60Min buckets the current bar uses (15-min Open-Meteo or 1-min Pirate). Each bucket is interpolated into a smooth curve; start = first wet minute (minutesUntilFirstWet), stop = first dry minute after the last wet one (findStopsAt). Peak = the heaviest bucket. Same detection floor, no second source.
Colorblind-safe. The shape of the curve, the labelled HIGH/MOD/LOW gridlines, the time-stamped start/stop markers, and the written answer all carry the meaning. Gold is the app's signature accent, not a code. Red/amber gridlines only reinforce a height that already reads on its own.
Buildable in React Native. One react-native-svg Path for the filled area + one for the stroke; the "now" marker animates with react-native-reanimated (a single translateX on an SVG <Line>). No layout animation, no Skia. The band keeps a fixed height whether it rains or not, so the hero never shifts.
