There are a couple of additional features that could make it even better, including some additional display formating options.
It does, however, seem to perform exactly as advertised and is easily installed and configured. In addition, the developer was responsive and helpful when I had questions.
Overall, a nice extension.

This component is excellent, and I've installed at various websites, useful functions that were previously impossible are now included, like clean the weather cache from the backend.
Further more, the module in front is so clean that I can easily adapt to what I need, in fact, it handles as independent templates and 100% configurable.
very good job.

I've been using this plugin for a while now to show the weather on one of my sites. It's got a nice look and flow and is easy to use. You can configure a lot through the admin panel.
Pros:
-Easy to use
-Support is quick to answer any questions I have and to help when any issues arise (No real issues yet though).
-The weather all on one page with 5 day forecast below is pretty cool.
cons:
-seems hard to edit the files to rearange the content but I'm not a big php guy.
-You have to import each state individually to allow the cities to be chosen by visitors to the site (an sql of all cities activated is available from the creator though)
Good extension if you want to show weather on your site. I wont be looking elsewhere.
Suggestions for improvement:
-Different styles/themes to choose from
-Different icon sets to choose from
-easy customization of the module
Thanks!

This component is just a copy of eWeather, adapted for Joomla 1.5 native! Pay for that is outrageous, because there is no serious work : no language except en-GB, just one set of icons, and the display is neglected: one sees by example "N/A km/h" or "calmkm/h" or columns not separated...
I've work one day for rewrite php files!! (i didn't know the language, it was an occasion to learn it, it's the single positive thing!!). And my ask for helping has no answer...
It's a shame!!
(P.S : excuse me for my bad english).

Works flawlessly and well worth the money. Excellent and nicely styled component for displaying the weather whatever part of the world you're in.
