He means it's gnarly, bitchin, the bomb, all that and a bag of Fritos....
You know how Eskimos have 1,000 ways to say "snow"? American slang has 100,000 ways to say "good", and that's the cat's pajamas.

He means it's amazing / outstanding. And what jsmorley said, of course...

Yeah, thanks both of you. Unfortunately for me this American slang tells nothing.Yincognito wrote: ↑April 3rd, 2020, 12:47 pm He means it's amazing / outstanding. And what jsmorley said, of course...

Re: ⭐ weather.com - Parsing the JSON
No, that probably isn't. But because I'm not an "American" speaker, I don't fully understand the slang. My fault, but that's it...

Re: ⭐ weather.com - Parsing the JSON
Thanks jsmorley for the clarification... I've to admit that by opening your inc files with those "@" measures, you scared me, and also instilled a good deal of doubts about my knowledge of Rainmeter coding after this long break...
However, I managed to do what I wanted, I modified my skin and limited the download to only what I need, now it's up and running smoothly.
Probably, if and when they change something I'll have to change it again, but I hope they won't do it too often.
...and now I've more data than before!
Losing the old wxdata, isn't that bad, in the end.

Re: ⭐ weather.com - Parsing the JSON
A couple of questions about the "new" data source...
I doubt there are weather alerts for Europe (...and I've a better source) but other than pollen, do you know how they're structured?
I'll have to admit I haven't seen one.
Checking if what I did was correct, I compared what was displayed in my skin and on the site, is it possible there's a difference of 1° C in all temperatures?

EDIT: Also, there is a limited "alert type" field in each forecast day section. It is called "qualifier", and it can have values like "Hard freeze expected.", sometimes regarding stronger winds, etc. Personally, I prefer displaying this instead of messing around with the enormous (and in some places, confusing) amount of data in the "Alerts" section of the JSON.

Re: ⭐ weather.com - Parsing the JSON
Thanks Yincognito.
Probably it's the wrong time, since the weather is almost always good, so, no alerts, however in the old wxdata the alerts were gone long ago and looking at the web page every now and then, I haven't seen any.
This slowed me down a lot in developing of the new version of my skins...
