Publisher's description of WeatherGopher

WeatherGopher screenshot
From WeatherGopher:

WeatherGopher displays the weather conditions and temperature in the system tray. Though lacking extensive features, it is hard not to appreciate WeatherGopher's clean, unobtrusive design. Version 0.75.2 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Editor's review of WeatherGopher

  • 3.0 stars

  • "WeatherGopher"
  • Version reviewed: WeatherGopher 0.75.2

This weather application claims to provide the current temperature for a given location in the United States, but its results left us cold.

WeatherGopher finds its home in the system tray and has a tabbed interface for configuring the location by postal ZIP code, customizing the color display, and specifying the Web site from which it will pull the temperature. (The U.S. National Weather Service and Weather.com are among your four options.) The temperature is displayed in the system tray and is refreshed every 15 minutes. Double-clicking the icon will take you directly to the site and its more detailed listings.

However, when we compared the displayed temperature in the system tray to the forecast site, we found a discrepancy in the measurements. In further testing, we had to rely on visiting the site; the tray icon was merely the WeatherGopher symbol with a rollover message indicating a server problem. Users looking for a reliable weather utility for U.S. temperatures will be disappointed in this freeware.
