"I've loved this application for years!"
Version: WeatherDock 2.5.1
Pros
Worked flawlessly as advertised.
Cons
Weather.com cut them off from their info, so it no longer works. Shame Weather.com couldn't work out a solution with the developer.
Summary
I hope the developer finds a work-around to restore functionality to this great program. I've missed it.

"WeatherDock no longer function."

Was a wonderful application. Shame on Weather.com
Cons
from the developer:"Weather.com, the supplier of weather data to the WeatherDock application, has updated their licensing scheme and does no longer allow for free usage. As such WeatherDock will be cut of of weather data, this November 15th at midnight Eastern-time (EST) (GMT-5)."

"Just WeatherFul"
Version: WeatherDock 2.5.1
Pros
Integrated fully w/Mac (but haven't tried on Intel yet), fully customizable for menu bar, dock, on screen, announces weather
Cons
I wish they had more color options for the weather icons. The weather items seem to be grouped together, and at times, it can really make the weather icon really ugly looking w/so many small ones hanging around it.
Summary
I've used this application every since it came out on my iBook,but I first used it on my eMac. I haven't found one like it. It is fully customizable in every way. I do think it could use some improvements although minor in cosmetics. It's very stable, it hasn't crashed on its own. It works great on small screens as well as large ones. The choices of home or work could be added to included school/college, vacation, etc. I don't have a lot of negative comments about this application. I like it to much. I use it on my iBook G4, and it's very sensitive to the internet. In fact, when my internet goes out, my weather dock is the first to let me know.

"it's what I was looking for."
Version: WeatherDock 2.5.1
Pros
On my dock; good graphics gives temperature as it is outside.
Cons
so far, so good.
Summary
I was looking for a weather app that I could use with my macbook. Weather.com's app does not support Mac. This one does...and it gets it's info from weather.com! Sweet so far.
I agree with RestonMacGuy and Boissel1! WeatherDock was the BEST app for a Miami transplant in a Northern state, who works at night!!! I was wondering why, for the last few days, I got a "weather conditions n/a" instead of my usual. Shame, shame, shame on you, weather.com!!! You developed a mobile app for my phone, don't have one for the Mac platform, but you won't support the WeatherDock dev's? I will be looking for a NEW weather app for my iPhone!

"WeatherDock is one of my 2 favorite weather apps."
Version: WeatherDock 2.5.1
Pros
It provides a lot of info in an attractive set of displays; the information is accurate and the app has never crashed so its dependability is definitely a pro. I like how the dock and desktop icons can be customized and how they appear upon changes..
Cons
None that come to mind.
Summary
I have used WD for years and this is one of two apps that I have found I can rely on and it will always be there. Others I have tried have existed for a period of time and updates haven't worked. It provides all I need and more. Great app.
