I am wanting to put a mountain backdrop to a widget. The weather for MULHACEN, highest peak in Spain, is found on yr.no at
http://www.yr.no/place/Spain/Andalucía/Mulhacén/
Geonames-ID: 2513428
I have tried adding the Geoname ID to the widget code but it cant pick up the weather. This would make a useful mountain weather resource for walkers and trekkers if we could get this working.
Can you help?
Thanks

First Pavel has to add the Geonames-ID to the database of YoWindow - and it's a pity but YoWindow can only handle populated places, no mountains or administrative divisions, so your mountain won't show up in YoWindow (in the near future).spanishhighs wrote:I am wanting to put a mountain backdrop to a widget.

Well, actually now we can 
Now you may request mountains and other places that cannot contain locations inside.
Think I need to update the instruction.
I have successfully added the mountain to YoWindow data base.
