I am glad to help you. :)

The temperature information is correct, thanks for the quick work. :good:
However, the weather (cloud amount and rain) has a 6 hours delay now from the third day compared to the yr.no website. :oops: I am not sure, but it seems to me that the short-term forecast also has a 3 hours delay. Wind data is correct.
I have attached a screenshot. Can you look at it if you have some time?

Thank you, again, Adrian.
What a beautiful report!
Yes, it looks like the long term forecast is interpreted wrong on our side.
We will be fixing it, hopefully today, but most likely on Monday.

Sorry for it, but the original problem has returned again. :oops:
The temperature (wind, humidity, etc.) has the 6 hours haste for long-term, and 3 hours for short-term. :( Now the cloud amount and precipitation are correct.

I hope you can find the bug.

Yes, the whole forecast is correct now. :Yahoo!: Thanks for it. :)

The only strange thing that when yr.no shows "rain showers", there is "rain" in YoWindow and sometimes it appears with sky condition of fair (in desktop version too). Probably, it is not wrong in connection with the data source, I have only mentioned that it may be unusual.

Such a good news :)
Thanks for checking the work.

The weather description is composed by our code.
That explains the difference.

It's a shame, but still I don't know the difference between Rain and "Rain Showers"
Does "Rain Showers" means occasional Rain?

Pasha,

This is a good explation http://www.komonews.com/weather/faq/4308002.html. I'm not sure how you would handle this in the YoWindow code.

Thank you, Jim!
I feel enlightened :)
Rain Showers condition is the source of so many complaints in YoWindow reviews.
YoWindow shows Rain, but people see the Sun outside.
We need to think about this carefully to let the user know that the rain is possible, but may not to occur.
