"Smart clear widget displaying 1 day or 5 day forecasts"
Version: AccuWeather.com Stratus widget 1.0
Pros
Neat display with choice of Cent or Fahr temperature reading.
Option to show the 5 day outlook along with today's weather.
Cute weather summary icons.Cons
Temperature reading is 2 or 3 hours out of date sometimes but hey this is a weather summarizer not an outdoor thermometer. Uses a bit of RAM but RAM's there to be used and it's cheap anyway!
Summary
Give it a try - it's been useful and trouble-free for me on an old HP desktop running Vista.
Provides an always-on or quick one-click snapshot of 5-day weather without having to faff around looking for it on a weather site. -
"Not really worth it..."
Version: AccuWeather.com Stratus widget 1.0
Pros
Nice transparent widget to have to the corner of your screen.
Cons
It uses up a lot of ram about 35mb worth.
Summary
Use whatever program you are using now like weatherbug. Not worth using if you are a vista user because vista comes with its own sidebar widget that takes up less ram..
