Score: 6.0/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 7, Documentation: 8, Utility: 4)

Omastorm is a Rust-based desktop plugin that brings live NOAA NEXRAD weather radar into the Omarchy Linux bar and desktop shell. It streams Level II data from AWS, renders multiple sweep treatments with theme-aware styling, and exposes a full-featured map window with a 60-frame loop, search, and keyboard controls. It's an impressive integration of raw meteorological data into a polished native desktop UI, though its audience is limited to Omarchy users.

Target audience: Linux desktop enthusiasts and Omarchy users, particularly weather hobbyists and developers interested in real-time data visualization
