YoWindow Forum

I'm not familiar with the workings of the Acurite stations other than to know there are many different systems with different capabilities. Normally one of the software packages that can read the station data is used to create the necessary xml file. If you look through the PWS section of the forum ...

YoWindow is not able to determine your cloud conditions just from the weather data provided. You could try a different weather software such as Weather Display or Cumulus which attempt to do that.
