Hello Everyone
Here are some suggestions for finding a weather provider to be used in the Weather Monitor plug-in.
You can use any page you find on the internet to parse (obtain) the weather information for your area except that if the weather is presented via flash or java you may not be able to use it.
Some weather providers are:
BBC Weather
Weather Channel UK
AWS USA only
Weather Channel USA
Weather Underground
Weather Underground Hong Kong
For other Weather Underground locations go to the page above and find your area in the left column
Generally there are newspapers that also have a weather page and do not forget television channels usually have a very good weather page as well.
For advanced plug-ins such as those that have Sunrise/Sunset times, Moonrise/Moonset, UV index, Pollen Count etc. you can use a different weather page for each plug-in if you wish.
Best wishes.
