Release: sWeather (tray-based weather app)
mouser:
very nice. :up:
ZorMi:
I did some digging and Yahoo! provide an API for the WOEID lookups so I added the functionality directly to sWeather.

Very good, it looks much better now. :) Few more hints:
Expanded table view should contain a column with time of last update, some data could be several hours old and unrealistic.
If Yahoo update schedule is fixed and reliable (I dunno about that) there could be an 'Automatic' refresh working like:
- read current Yahoo weather data and when it's updated.
- based on this and Yahoo schedule calculate next update.
- read again a minute (or five) after calculated time.
- if it's refreshed... great. wait next update.
- if it's still old... try again in 5 (or 15) minutes.
... or something similar.
Regards...
Who's KorMi? :D

Here's a screenshot of the new sWeather Options panel.

I'll see what I can do.

I"ll consider this but, with the new 15 minute update cyclye, I don't see a whole lot of benefit.

Doh! My apologies... :-[ I've fixed this in the changelog and uploaded a minor build update.
skwire:
This update might move the expanded view's name column to the far right as the last column. If so, simply drag it back to where you want it and close the window. The order will be saved for next time. Thanks.
