I do also get this error message on every Opera start. Ok, I could turn off the update feature, but I don't want to.

I have an issue with ttsky - every time I launch Opera it comes up automatically (so far so good). However, it comes open with an error message about not being able to update. But it did update, as evidenced by the date and time I see once I close the error message. How do I fix it? (Note: just got Opera and the widget within the last week.)

Otherwise, terrific widget!

I like this widget, but would find it much more useful if I was able to choose metric temperature BUT with windspeeds in MPH (there is already a choice between kph or m/s so I'm sure this could be added).

I am British and we never properly converted to metric, so we measure temp only in Celcius but speed only in MPH!

Doesn't work in Opera Kestrel builds. The other widgets i've tried all work fine. The latest Opera build where ttSky works seems to be v9.25.

I'd like to add another request to show the actual and reelfeel temps at the same time. In places like where I am [Manitoba, Canada] the difference between actual and perceived gives a quicker and better impression of the actual weather than looking at the real temp, wind speed, et al. Great work, though!

Does not work for Sweden, although Accuweather has the location:

Terrific

Great widget -
I'd like to see it remember the last places you entered, so you can flick between them easily.

mm...I think this widget is good...at least at that time

By nickgreek , # Nov 16, 2007 11:01:25 PM

....How use this thing?....fu.....

Hi! I just love this widget, it's awesome! Very useful and good looking.

But I noticed something: my friend and I both have this widget and we were on msn one day and I told her to check the weather on Touch The Sky - she did, so did I (we were making some plans). It turns out, widget showed different temperature for her and me. At the same time (for the same place of course). And sometimes I notice it says it's, let's say, raining, and rain:

a) is not there (BUT! it starts raining after a while)
b) rain stopped but widget still shows it

But I still like this widget...if only few things (mine and what other people said) could be changed, it would be perfect!

Great work!

I have a problem with this widget:
In the forecast tab wind speeds have a conversion problem: in US units it shows NW at 35 mph with gusts of 74 mph, while in metric units it shows NW at 15m/s OR km/h and gusts of 33 m/s OR km/h !!! (correct values from AccuWeather.com are 49km/h - 107 km/h).

: I live in "Umlaut"-city, too ;-) (Mülheim)
For Accuweather try "Furth" with a vocal instead of the Umlaut. For me, it works.
BTW, greath widget, thx to the developer

this widget looks great, but the data i get turns out not to be correct. i live in ljubljana (slovenia) and right now there is some 6 degrees C difference between the temperature shown through the widget and the actual temperature, making the widget rather useless as a reference point. pitty!

By kvisnar , # Nov 1, 2007 6:49:44 AM

, the time data comes from Accuweather, which gets it from your local weather monitoring station. Perhaps the monitoring station hasn't changed, or hasn't uploaded data to Accuweather recently? What area are you in?

Superb widget!

Is there a way to alter the time in this as the clocks have just gone back?

Thanks

Okay, I've got a question that I'd like to throw open to everyone to get your opinions - don't want to make major changes without checking first!

By johnnysaucepn , # Oct 18, 2007 11:12:51 AM

what a fantastic little thing!!!! looks good too. Only I wish it'd show the time as well in mini-mode. That would make it PERFECT.

Thank you

By spellico , # Oct 18, 2007 12:56:01 AM

This widget is great
I think it should show both actual and RealFeel at the same time, so it's not needed to go to the configurations to change
