The weather widget retrieves live weather data from the Open Weather Map Weather Service . The icon and temperature updates in real-time when the weather report updates. The Open Weather Map Weather Service is FREE and access is provided by a free API key which must be entered on the property sheet. Add our open weather service to the station services configuration. Note: The Wunderground weather service is no longer free, so we have changed weather providers. If you have a Wunderground API key it will stop working soon. Our Weather Service module is Free when bought with this widget.
