Pre-takeoff checklist
Guys, it looks like my app is the first aviation-related app for Android Wear smartwatches (currently, only LG G Watch and Galaxy Gear Live)!
You can download it for free from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eugr.wearmetar
The app description from the Play Store:
I also have a slightly more functional version for Google Glass if someone is interested. That one is not published, as the process to publish Glass applications is much more tricky.

The app description from the Play Store:
The first aviation weather app for Android Wear!
Use your voice to request METAR for a particular airport, city or nearest airport (U.S. only for now).
Usage instructions:
On an active watchface, say "ok Google, start Airport Weather". Alternatively you can use one of the available launchers to launch Airport Weather application on your Wear device (not the handheld!)
It will launch the app and display a secondary voice prompt.
You can then say the airport name (e.g. "Palomar Airport") or city name (e.g. "San Diego"). Also you can say "nearest airport" and it will display weather for the closest airport within 25 miles.
The result will come back as an actionable notification with current color-coded flight rules (VFR, IFR, etc) if a single airport was found or the worst flight rules if multiple airports were found.
You can then click on the notification to see the full decoded weather card. If several airports are found, you can scroll the cards vertically.
Tested on LG G Watch.
