Way to go, Paul! Looking at the bottom screen shot and it represents exactly what I was missing in MyWeather (although I did not realise it until I saw it :wink: )

Is it going to be implemented in the next version of MP? Anyways, a big cheer for all your effort so far!

I’ve uploaded the code that has been changed for this enhancement onto sourceforge as a patch and also created a complied version in case you want to try out the enhancements without compiling the code.

Here is a link to the patch on sourceforge
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1106365&group_id=107397&atid=647927

Here is a link to the complied version
http://www.pholding.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/weather_enhancement_bin.zip

Both zip files contain a readme.txt file which explains what to do.

Enjoy and let me know what you think.

Very nice indeed.

Now I finally found a place to add the traffic images, so I can not only watch the weather around Airy Crater, but also the traffic

Lets call it Weather & Traffic...

The only thing that would be very nice in this case is a refresh option

Links?

does anyone have the links for the maps that appear in the screenshots of this enhancement?

Looks good but I don't see Radar which is what I'd like/need the most.

I know this would complicate things greatly but this would be a lot better if it were data driven. Store the titles and links to maps in a database instead of hard codeing them. Then people could just "Add Map" or "Delete Map" to their heart's content and they could name them whatever they wanted.

um... what about a low/high for the forcast?

What I would like to see is the possiblity to specify placeholders in the URLs for year,month,day,hours,minutes and seconds because lots of weather images are having dates in them like the following:
