Editor's Note
- This extension requires registration to download.
The api used for the original module will come to a close in October 2012 and the module will stop working.
This is an early beta version and there are still many bugs and optimizations to make. I am aware of these issues and am actively working to fix them. Please do not contact me for support regarding site-specific/styling/javascript issues at the moment. This is meant as an early release for people to test and submit errors with the core functionality.
Some of the newer features include:
New ways to add locations
Original fixed location mode
Multi-list without urls (just type the name of the town)
Google geo-search
Geonames.org ajax location lookup
HTML5 geolocation (users location)
Ability for user to save favorite location (in a cookie)
The ability to turn off parts of the table (humidity, pressure etc)
The metogram is now plotted rather than an image and is translateable
Added cloud cover %
Added wind direction icons
Added temperature icons
Sun up/ Sun down times
Show webcams for the chosen area
The credit for the original script once again goes to Henkka of nordicweather.net

I would have rated this extension higher, but there is a problem with weather displaying two days of tomorrow - one for tomorrow and one for tomorrow some days later. For example:
Today, Tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday ...
Also, when setting the primary map location with the exact co-ordinates, the weather doesn't show for that day and only shows tomorrow and beyond weather conditions. If you enter your location into the list it shows Today's weather and then Tomorrow's, but if you don't you only get the weather for Tomorrow and beyond.
Also, when you set a city location it does not allow you to select the state or province thus forcing the use of city and country. I believe this leads to the 'Tomorrow' first in the list display without showing 'Today' first.
If this extension didn't do this it would probably be among the better ones out there, but these things really need to be fixed.
