Weather Watcher is an elegantly simple application that provides users with detailed real time weather information on their desktop. When the application is running, it automatically displays the live temperature on the desktop; clicking over it reveals more detailed information such as the current weather condition, the upcoming day's forecast, current temperature, total amount of solar energy available, and many more. Another great feature of the application is the built in clock. The clock can be customized to display the local time, daylight saving time, summer time, winter time, standard time, or any custom setting desired. To add to all of this, the application also provides numerous detailed graphs of weather data, including maximum and minimum temperatures, rainfall, cloud cover, snowfall, dew point, surface temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed, altitude, satellite coverage, and much more.
Weather Watcher was created to meet a specific need for computer users, which is to provide detailed, timely weather information to the desktop computer user in a convenient format that is easily understandable and which is readily retrievable by other applications. The program does not require installation of additional programs or utilities, as it is a self-contained application which can easily be run from the Windows start menu through the safe application installation process. The program runs in the background, using system resources and continuously receives updates of the current conditions of the weather and world events.
The weather watcher system tray icon can be customized to display any of the five available displays of weather data. To access any of the five displays, a click on the appropriate icon will highlight particular weather data set which is usually clearly labeled on the screen. The Weather Watcher application can be easily adjusted to provide an automatic download of the latest weather data and can even be configured to automatically download the latest forecast information.
