that doesn't explain why mine isn't updating. Is anybody else having this problem?

Quote:try another postal code not near your own and see what happens. Some areas have spotty coverage for pollen reportsStill does not work. ??? The zip codes I tried work if you go to the weather.com page and use their Check Your Local Pollen Forecast.
I am used to seeing temperatures as 60°F or 60°C, whereas Weather Forecast uses 60 F° and 60 C°. Yuri, is there any reason for this?

Magnific...
But how can you get the forecast directly from the bar as in your example?
If I put plugin on the bar I have only the tip.
Forecast windows like yours appears only from a menu.
Thanks

Have you clicked the weather icon, instead of hovering over it to see the tooltip?

This is awesome! And it even works for my city Eindhoven... (well, except for the three extra items: pollen, airport and events)...
Indeed a manual refresh option would be nice, although I found out that opening the 'properties' window and pressing OK will refresh as well...
Also in "default 16" skin I changed the width from 57 to 50, because it showed a great gap with one-digit temperatures, and now two-digit temperatures still fit perfectly... And I don't expect any three-digit temperatures in centigrades :p
Btw, it's degrees Celsius, not Celsius degrees as in the skin... ie. the little superscript degree circle should be in front of the C or F...
Really an impressive plugin: easy setup, and looks wonderful!

I'm still having problems with it updating. It hasn't updated since 12:47pm yesterday. Anybody else having this problem?

Quote:Indeed a manual refresh option would be nice, although I found out that opening the 'properties' window and pressing OK will refresh as well...You can right click on the weather forecast icon or the skinned weather forecast and click on Refresh.

I should have been more clear: with refresh I meant update from website, like the "Get weather now" option on Weather Monitor.
Using the refresh option on either the icon or the menu doesn't update the data from the website, and I was also wrong when saying that it updates when closing the properties window...
So there is no way of manually updating the weather data...

Does anyone know of "how to", or are there any plans to get this to work with th UK weather ??
- Q Section - 04-25-2004
Hello south-park
HorusUK and possibly some others are up on the UK possibilities. We have been away for awhile so we are not as up-to-date.
Be seeing you
- Q Section - 04-25-2004
We just got word from our home office....... if you put "UKXX0085" without the quotes in the Properties>Location ID you can get London to show for the Weather Forecast!
Hope this helps - Be seeing you
Manchester = UKXX0092
Birmingham = UKXX0018
Liverpool = UKXX0083
Brighton = UKXX0215
Let us know where you desire.......
EDIT - Most International cities are available. Please post requests here.
Paris, France = FRXX0076
Bagdad, Iraq = IZXX0008

Qsection - thanks for your help. I live in the North East, Darlington to be exact but not sure if you're gonna get that exact, so as close to Middlesbrough as possible. Thanx in advance
