Rainmeter Weather?

Post by inky »

Rainmeter cut off / Weather.com cuts their XML Feed
By sgtevmckay Posted July 7, 2009 19:59:13External Link

Hello folks.

Weather.com: responsible for thousands of Rainmeter skin feeds a day, has just pulled the plug on their XML feed that is utilized to parse the most Weather skins.

Several solutions are available at the Rainmeter forums:
http://www.rainmeter.net

Communications with Weather.com have been established to reach a solution for skins users worldwide.
There will be changes, if new regulations are accepted



Note:

This may effect more than the Rainmeter community as literally dozens of Parsing programs utilized this feed.
I expect there to be a lot of immediate future issues

if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me

Well that explains a lot...
Anyone here have any other solution other than to wait? I'm using moxaweather and trying to see if I can somehow change the Feeding source or whatever it's called.
