Perfect. I miss home and this helps keep me in touch.

Utile, purtroppo però non prevede la possibilità di avvicinare la visuale del radar su un solo stato europeo (forse perché si basa su AccWeather che è dedicato principalmente agli USA). Tuttavia i dati sul clima che può indicare sono numerosi, come velocità del vento, direzione, ora di alba e tramonto, stato della luna e molti altri!

This is the best version, don't waste time with that crummy Thosmas Bertles copy with hardly any cities.

great addon! I keep it hidden at all times except for severe weather forecasts but you can set it to show or hide itself any way you like. it would be even better if I could tell it to open wunderground.com instead of accuweather.com when i want to details but that may be wishful thinking.
this one is essential addition to ff.

Have always liked this, and am now using it with Win7 and Shiretoko (3.1b3pre)(I had to modify the install.rdf file to do this).

I love this plugin!
Simple, easy to use, and doesn't take up too much space.

Wow..When forecastfox is not online to receive the data FF goes into freeze mode. Never had a problem before until recently. Hope they fix it

Does everything i need. Tells me about todays tomorrows and the next days weather. It updates if severe weather alerts are issued. Also, it can be customized to show only icons so that it takes up less space.

I've been using Forecastfox almost as long as I've been using Firefox and have always enjoyed this add-on being here. Not only does it take up a small amount of space on the pc, but when you update it it doesn't really use too much of your bandwidth to slow down load times on anything else.......until a few days ago. I suddenly noticed all the weather data just disappeared! I thought it was No-script at first; but after I adjusted its settings I figured out it was forecastfox. With no way to fix it (and since downgrading didn't help) I'm just going to temporarily disable it until I know its been fixed. Hopefully that will be soon.

I love the program but like others I have started have problems receiving the accuweather data.
I also previously notes another problem that occurred on both my computers. I recently u/g to SeaMonkey 1.1.14 and tried to reinstall Forecastfox 0.9.8 and although it downloaded and started through the install routine I got a message that "Install script not found ". Again this happened on both machines. I had to go back to ver 0.9.5.2 before I could get it installed. Until today, 0.9.5.2 has worked well on both machine but now it am just getting the moving bar trying to load the weather date.

I encountered a bug (same as other users) and tried to file a bug report on trac as advised here. I registered, but I'm not allowed to post a bug.
So here is a bug report, you can delete this comment after it's resolved:
Today, The weather forecast (icons, data, location) for my preferred location (Lyon, France (Rhone-Alpes): EUR|FR|FR022|LYON|) disappeared suddenly, although this location is [http://www.accuweather.com/world-index-forecast.asp?partner=forecastfox&traveler=0&loccode=EUR|FR|FR022|LYON still available on accuweather]. If I try to find code in forecasfox, no result is returned for Lyon. But the other locations I configured a long time ago are still correct (In France, Belgium and US).
I did not install anything new on my Firefox at this time.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5 and Forecast fox 0.9.8.
It seems that only certain locations are affected by this bug.

Love it. Uses little bandwidth or resources and is very convenient...until just recently. Adding accuweather.com to the NoScript whitelist doesn't work. It's as if accuweather stopped supporting it, but considering the frequency that I actually went to their website for more detailed radar and weather info, they'd be stupid to discontinue.

If no icon and no information, please try to allow accuweather.com in NoScript Add-on.

it's working perfectly! just what I wanted. I like to watch weather channel, most of the time I have to wait to see the temp. This is considered a must-have for me. Great Add-ons!

I like it, except I've been getting "Severe weather alerts" every day for about 3 weeks now. Since the temp has been in the 50s with no rain or wind....
Also, the bug report link doesn't work.

I use this daily to keep an eye on the weather. Only problem I have is that sometimes it has a connection error (undoubtedly due to my internet connection being crap), which can sometimes be fixed by reloading the weather data.
