My System

Default Here's the Weather image URL's for the UK from weather.com

I did search for the images at weather.com and here they are. They may go out of date one day but I tested them today and they work fine.

Just run MediaPortal Setup, go to weather tab, add, search for your city and then fill in the entries at the bottom for each tab nd then add it :-

satellite = http://image.weather.com/images/sat/uksat_600x405.jpg

temperature = http://image.weather.com/images/maps...c_day1_600.jpg

UV Index = http://image.weather.com/images/maps...v_day1_600.jpg

Winds = http://image.weather.com/images/maps...s_day1_600.jpg

Humidity = http://image.weather.com/images/maps...h_day1_600.jpg

Precipitation = http://image.weather.com/images/maps...precip_600.jpg

I am indeed using the weather.com links (I found them on my own! - I wish I'd known about that post!!)

I would like a more clear wind map
Something like : Wind Map - Britain

Oops!!
Wrong place!!

Default Not working anymore

The weather.com urls dont seem to be working anymore. Has anyone had any luck finding any other urls?

I have found a few potential sites with good maps but they all require a key to make proper sense of the map, which is not included in the map jpg.

I did stumble across this site which has some nice maps.
