Gnome has been working on a better weather-location system for several cycles now. Their libgweather uses airport locations (because that's where the weather station usually is), but you can always add your preferred location by filing a bug. The bug must include the weather station you want data from.]]> Mon, 26 Jan 2009 14:18:59 +0000 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 21:00:02 +0000 I live in Australia and the only cities listed are major ones. There are airports near me that do submit meteorological information to databases so and I would love to be able to view this information from the weather applet.

Great idea (I think I mentioned it in an earlier idea). And they are quite easy to decode too..

I will repost it as a solution here.. ]]> Wed, 28 Jan 2009 04:28:58 +0000 Wed, 28 Jan 2009 04:29:58 +0000 Wed, 28 Jan 2009 20:13:48 +0000
I'm not sure how it handles other countries, but I'm certain it does. I'll have to do more digging for the API]]> Sat, 25 Apr 2009 08:38:42 +0000
Another possible source of information that might be worth considering is the Norwegian Meteorological Institute. Please refer to http://www.yr.no/english/ for more information.]]> Sat, 07 Nov 2009 10:28:09 +0000 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 10:39:49 +0000
