"Does not work in Windows 10"

RockFox January 09, 2018 / Version: AccuWeather.com Stratus widget 1.0

None, it doesn't work.

Adobe Air gives a message that the file is corrupt. I downloaded three times and got the same message every time I tried to run it.

"Smart clear widget displaying 1 day or 5 day forecasts"

rosefan September 27, 2010 / Version: AccuWeather.com Stratus widget 1.0

2010-09-27 01:37:36 | By rosefan

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Temperature reading is 2 or 3 hours out of date sometimes but hey this is a weather summarizer not an outdoor thermometer.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..."

Nexess February 21, 2009 / Version: AccuWeather.com Stratus widget 1.0

2009-02-21 06:47:42 | By Nexess

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..
