Change to Yahoo! weather feed

[jsmorley]

I already use the feed from weather.com, but it stopped working too obviously (at least for me).

Is there also any option to get it working again.

I use the Very Flat Weather widget:

Code: Select all

[Metadata]
Name=VeryFlatWeather

;End of added Metadata

Gnometer weather 5 day fix here! (experimented myself)

Find this:

Code: Select all

Url=http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/#weather.Zip#?cc=*&unit=#weather.Unit#&dayf=5

Replace with:

Code: Select all

Url=http://wxdata.weather.com/wxdata/weather/local/#weather.Zip#?cc=*&unit=#weather.Unit#&dayf=5

Just a thought, but you might want to update this post to coincide with the death of the weather.com XML feed. Some people might get confused.

[SquaredCircle]

Is there a way using the weather.com feed to have abbreviations for day names rather than having the whole day spelled out?

What does this have to do with the Yahoo! weather feed?

Please start a thread in Help: Rainmeter Skins.

Other people had mentioned the weather.com feed in this thread, but I suppose my question would be better off in its own thread after all. Sorry.

Thanks for this! It worked perfectly except I noticed that my "Day 2" weather is the Current Day weather, however my "Day 3" weather is accurate. Could you by any chance help with this?

Here's the fixed YahooWeather.inc for Enigma users... seems to be working for now, but let me know if there are any problems.
