Hello! Weather in Norilsk, Russia is wrong. YoWindow takes weather Airport USRR but it Surgut. In Norilsk airport UOOO. The correct airport code can not be selected. Can I fix this?

Hi Victor,

Welcome to YoWindow.

Unfortunately UOOO doesn't provide weatherdata.
So that can't be used.

USRR Surgut is the closest usable METAR near Noril'sk.
Is there still something wrong with Surgut you think?

Thank you.
Fred

Thank you! With Surgut okay. But the distance to Norilsk more than 1000 km, so the weather is wrong. You can suggest the nearest airport provide weatherdata? Sorry, bad speak English.

Hi Victor,

You're English is fine, don't worry.

I've looked at every airport around Noril'sk.
All airports I found don't provide weatherdata unfortunately.
At least not for the moment.

I understand that Surgut is too far away, but it's the only alternative that can be used inside YoWindow at the moment, sorry.

We hope to make it possible to use other weatherproviders in the future.
Stay tuned.

Fred

Hi Victor,

In the last Release Candidate version of YoWindow for desktop (version RC b168), there is an option under Location/Properties to have Open Weather Map as weathersource.
Perhaps this can be of use to you.
You can download the RC b168 here: http://yowindow.com/rc.html

If you have any questions or remarks please let us know.

Fred
