I use the widget's for weather on my Mac. They also have gadgets for Windows 7 and 8 that are fairly advanced for weather. If you are on XP (which unless your computer is a dinosaur you probably shouldn't be) they have rainmeter which can provide an interactive desktop environment (i.e.) weather widgets.

Been running it all summer. Pretty much done up here for this season.

Thank you for the app.

Cool. What is it doing for times? I never hear much about it. Any pic anywhere of it? That app works pretty good and is pretty accurate. I've been at events and compared its weather reporting to those who have big bucks in weather stations. The worst ive seen is 35' on density altitude.

I can deal with 35' for 5 bucks. I just realized RaceIQ, which I have, also lists weather parameters.
