AccuWeather.com Mini-Forecast

AccuWeather.com Mini-Forecast is a Windows gadget that resides in your sidebar and provides you with basic information about the weather. The information is retrieved from the AccuWeather.com website for a location of your choice.

As the name clearly states, the extension interface is very small and displays only the current temperature and the sky visibility for the current location. Unfortunately, it can only display the information for one location at a time.

The user can view the forecast for the next five days by clicking the temperature or the sun symbol. If you want more details about your city to need to click on the city name in order to open the location's webpage from the AccuWeather website. Unfortunately, the link is not correctly set for all locations and some searches might only direct you to the home page.

The widget is able to provide the weather conditions for all the major cities across the globe. You just need to search for the desired location in the Options window. If it has a meteorological station, you can set it as the current location. The search results are displayed almost instantly and can even include city neighborhoods such as Brooklyn or Greenwich.

While it does not allow you to change the size or the interface colors, the gadget still offers you the option of choosing between the metric and the imperial system for displaying the temperature.

AccuWeather.com Mini-Forecast is a convenient weather forecast provider for the users that settle for the basic temperature information and a minimalistic interface. If you require detailed data such as the precipitations or the wind direction, you need to visit the website or find another solution.
