3 Great Windows Sidebar Gadgets: Part Four

Weather Underground

The good ol’ weather gadget has unsurprisingly a big success amongst people with Windows Vista in the UK. So if you’re not sick and tired of knowing whether it’s going to rain, or…err… rain, then here’s another one for you to try.
It shows you temperature (in Centigrade or Fahrenheit), an indication of the current weather outside - including photos local residents have taken - and a three day forecast for the days ahead.
You can select which city you live in to give you a local forecast, and you can choose which weather station in the local area you want to use, to make the weather reading even more accurate.
