Weather programs

Postby phil509 » Fri Jul 18, 2003 5:06 pm

:)Hi!My querry is,are there any good freeware real world weather programs to be had out there? As the stock program requiers one to use MSN,which I dont,Im wondering what alternatives are available.I have "Personal Weather Maker",which is good,but not real world.Please advise,fellow Simheads! ;D :(
To bad I cant make a living out of this,but it would probably kill me.

Free-bee, excellent, simple, small, weather program.... ;D...!
Ozzy and I, and probably quite a few more simmers, use it all the time...!
Highly recommend for all those who don't want to be downloading real weather from the 'Net while flying... 8)...!
