Publisher's description
From Ensolis :ForecastFox is an extension that brings international weather from AccuWeather.com to your Firefox web browser. You can use your US zip code or you can easily find your town or city by using the built in search tool. It is unobtrusive and lightweight, yet can be customized to display nearly as much data as the leading desktop weather programs. If you can't find what you are looking for, double-click the weather icons displayed to open the AccuWeather.com forecast for that day. A slider, similar to when popup notification for when all downloads complete, pops up from the bottom right corner of your screen when the current conditions are updated. You can even set what appears in it or disable it. Version 0.8.1.2 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.
CNET Editor's Note: The Download Now link will prompt a local download of the Firefox extension. To install the extension directly, open the file using your Firefox browser.

Version: ForecastFox 0.8.2.5
"Definitely the best weather solution."
Pros: A brilliant amount of options and customizable parts. From the amount of days shown to whether you want a tooltip, warnings, radar, day or night (or day and night!). It is non intrusive, slim, good looking, and above all helpful. And all this in the tray of your firefox updating itself automatically in the background. I think this is ideal over any weather program running on your system, and one of the best firefox extensions created.
Cons: There are no major flaws at all. My only personal annoyance is that the 'clear' weather icon is really ugly in my opinion. So maybe it would be good to have an option to change icons or even better skin them. But as they are not oversized or obtrusive this is not a big con :)

"Awesome extension to have, see weather all the time"
Pros: I love this extension because I like to see the current weather conditions in my area. You can customize what it shows as well such as extra stuff to be shown like dew point, wind direction, etc. Firefox is so customizable that you can move the ForecastFox weather icon next to bookmarks toolbar or just about anywhere.
Cons: None. I think Forecast Fox and Paste and go extensions should be included with Firefox in future versions.

Version: ForecastFox 0.8.2.5
Pros: This has saved me lots of time by displaying the week's weather on the bottem of the browser. It even has a little pop up window telling me what the weather is for today.
