Scrolling. If you know a bit of perl you need to expand the .par file
(it's just a zip (into the parent directory)) and then edit Plugin.pm
and remove getLongWeather in %providers around line 224. Comment out
the getLongWeather bit with a hash and change the last , in the
previous line to );   Worked for me, but I don't rely on anything its
fetching.

my %providers =  (
..snip..
'11' => \&getStocks);
#                  '12' => \&getLongWeather);

In other news I've written a new provider to go fetch info from
bom.gov.au. It's "official" weather and more regularly updated than
weather.com, and sometimes less weird than wunderground's results (it
also has better coverage than weather.com)  Handily bom.gov.au provides
data 3 formats, so no HTML scraping (I've got a Squeezbox V3).

Is this the sort of thing that should be tidied up and placed into the
main branch? Or should it remain an oddity? However... the more of
these things placed into the main branch the further it diverges from
its original intent, and I really don't expect the original author to
have too much interest in maintaining Australian weather.

I haven't gone to the length of updating the UI at the moment. Happy to
do that if there's interest.

(I apologise if this has been covered in some shape or form, 150+ is
too many to read).
