Weather Widgets

what about Canada??

July 26, 2006 1:29:57 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
Does anyone actually make a Weather Widget that connects to a Canadian weather service.  All the weather widgets are great but they connect to US servers so Canadian cities aren't available?  theweathernetwork.com has a desktop weather program called "WeatherEye" but its dull and boring.....any suggestions?

You just need to enter city, country (eg. Calgary, Canada) or the city code (CAXX0054) which you can get from Weather.com

If your exact city doesnt work you can always try the closest city to you and it will still be fairly accurate.

What Jaramia said is even more accurate. Often when you look at the underlying codes the actual data is coming from the same Environment Canada location as you'd get normal.

eg. Waterloo, Ontario. is actually Waterloo-Wellington and covers Guelph, Cambridge, etc etc.
