Drumroll, please...
Here it is, the Yahoo Weather provider file. I have no idea if all the possible weather conditions are represented or not. If you find one that doesn't have an icon, please let me know so I can add it to the provider file.
I like Yahoo Weather best so far because it's international, powered by Weather.com (so it's probably very accurate, reliable, and updated frequently), and has lots of information (including a 5 day forecast, so when Yuri fixes the tooltip > 1k "bug", I can add all that stuff, too). As it turns out, the HTML has lots of comments (generated from php, cgi, or the like) that act as landmarks for helping the plugin find the appropriate values easily enough.
NOTE: This provider file only works with Weather Monitor version 1.2 and above.
To install, download this file to your \TrueLaunchBar\Plugins\weathermon\providers directory (you can name the file whatever you like - I recommend yahoo.ini), then refresh Weather Monitor (right click -> Refresh). Next, right-click WM, select Properties, then change the provider to "Yahoo Weather". Click the ">>" button, navigate to your forecast page, then copy that URL back to the plugin's Properties window. Chose your skin and paramaters and click Ok. Now you're set. Enjoy...
