Hi,jsmorley
So you personally cannot do anything about this?? I am sorry if I prey on your privacy,but did you ever email Weather.com regarding Rainmeter with its weather service?? I mean,lots of Rainmeter skins heavily relied on Weather.com to render the effect.

This is not about weather.com, it's an API service called wxdata, and I have no visibility into that. It is what it is...ryanchuang wrote: ↑January 18th, 2020, 1:51 pm Hi,jsmorley

Re: Weather not working?
My question related to The Weather Channel as provider for the weather skins is if there is any way to get the temperatures in either Celsius or Fahrenheit in the skins? I saw the setting available on the site and it does work, however I can't figure out a way to get the temperatures in Celsius in the skin.
So, is there any solution?
Thank you.

Re: Weather not working?
You need to pass a "language" as a part of the URL. The unit(s) of measure are automatic, based on the language.balala wrote: ↑January 18th, 2020, 7:22 pm My question related to The Weather Channel as provider for the weather skins is if there is any way to get the temperatures in either Celsius or Fahrenheit in the skins?

Thank you.
So if you use a language where the country of the language uses metric, the data will be metric.
While on the website you can force a mismatch, like setting the country to US and the units to C, that won't work when parsing the site via a URL.
Code: Select all
LocationCode=USVA0944
; If another language or unit(s) of measures are desired, simply go to https://weather.com/
; Using the controls at the top of the page, set your country and units of measure as desired.
; Copy and enter the Language from the resulting URL.
; For example, French would be Language=fr-FR
; The unit(s) of measure are automatic, based on the language.
; For instance, you cannot have the language be French, but the units be F imperial.
; Note however, that simply changing from imperial F to metric C units of measure while keeping the
; langage as English can be done by using en-GB as the Language.
Language=en-US
; Don't change these.
LanguagePath=/#Language#
URLcurrent=https://weather.com/#Language#/weather/today/l/#LocationCode#
URLtendday=https://weather.com/#Language#/weather/tenday/l/#LocationCode#
URLhourbyhour=https://weather.com/#Language#/weather/hourbyhour/l/#LocationCode#
Code: Select all
; https://weather.com/en-US/weather/today/l/USVA0944
TempUnit=<span class="icon icon-font iconset-ui icon-globe" className="icon icon-font iconset-ui icon-globe"></span><span>.*</span><span class="styles__borderLeft__2zhrE">°(\w)</span>
; This will return "F"
; https://weather.com/en-GB/weather/today/l/USVA0944
TempUnit=<span class="icon icon-font iconset-ui icon-globe" className="icon icon-font iconset-ui icon-globe"></span><span>.*</span><span class="styles__borderLeft__2zhrE">°(\w)</span>
; This will return "C"

Re: Weather not working?
Ok, so for some languages you might need worry about where you put stuff...
Language=ro-RO
Language=ro-RO
