Description

=================
UPDATE:
Hey ya'll, this skin is now deprecated!
=================

Have trouble figuring out what you need to put on before going out? This light little skin digs through your local weather data and gives you an idea of what you might want to put on before heading out. Detailed information about today, tomorrow, and the day after are also all included.

SETUP: Once the skin is loaded (just download and click through) you will need to change the weather code.
1: Pop open another tab
2: Go to weather.com, search for your city
3: Get the weather code from the URL (ex: weather.com/weather/today/l/ USWA0395:1:US )
4: Right click on the skin
5: Select "Edit"
6: Scroll down to Location*
7: Replace the value with your weather code, save
8: Refresh the skin (right click on the skin again, click refresh)

*Under location are the user defined preferences for what's too hot, cold, windy, and your preferred degree measurement (f/c), etc. I suggest you change these to something more palatable to you.
Follow the directions in the skin: set Temp to "f" or "m" depending on what measuring system you use (fahrenheit or metric), and Degrees to what the display should be, "F" or "C".

Running a version of Windows other than Windows 10? Worry not, so long as you can run the most recent version of Rainmeter, this skin will be forward compatible with it. That means Windows 7/8/8.1/10 are all supported.

VERSION HISTORY:
1.2: fixed fahrenheit/celsius switching. It works now
1.1: added fahrenheit/celsius variable (modified just below location)
1.0: base skin uploaded, made public. Enjoy! Leave any feedback or comments down below.

HAVE AN ISSUE/QUESTION/COMMENT? LET ME KNOW!
Chances are it's an easy fix and I can push an updated version to you pretty quickly.

Hey dude!

First of all, great skin! I really like the concept.

However, I for one cannot change the temperature display to °C properly. For me it seems like it still displays the same values (as if it was still Fahrenheit) with a C to it at the end. I'd be damned if it actually were 78°C outside :P 
I'm not too much into the Rainmeter programming, nor am I a programmer at all, so the problem might lie on my side, I hope you can help me anyway! I have changed the variables at the very top to my preferences, including the f/c one, so I don't know whats wrong :/

Keep up the good work,
greetings from Germany!
