When you say 'a station' are you talking about a personal weather station or a true, monitored station? I have a personal weather station on WU and if there's a data issue then you'd have no screensaver because a station not heard from on WU's PWS system disappaers from the system until it's heard from again. Plus, you're at the mercy of how often their station is updated. My personal station is on their RapidFire system with 5 second refreshes. I'm looking at their list of 'local' personal weather stations for my area and the refresh times are anywhere from 5 seconds to an hour. Anyhow, those are merely surface observations. Forecasts don't come from personal weather stations. -- avaloncourt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ avaloncourt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4200 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21989 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
