Scott Base, Antarctica
Geonames-ID: 6620787
I couldn't find Antarctica on the countries list, maybe it is listed under a different country.
Here's hoping.
Great New Year to all and to YoWindow
Tony

Done!

I hope Antarctica will appear in YoWindow after this location is added

Hi Tony and Pavel,
I tried Scott Base, Antarctica and it shows the weather for Christchurch, New Zealand. Give this location a try instead.

6299995 ; Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station/Antarctica

The METAR station is NZSP. I entered it manually and seems to work.

Don

Thanks Pavel and Don.
Yes NZSP seems to work.
40 degees C warmer here than where my friend is working and we are both in summer!

Tony,
I found a METAR station that is only a couple of miles from Scott Base: NZPG
It is located at Pegasus Field/McMurdo Station.

Pavel,
Is possible to make YoWindow realize that this station is much closer to Scott Base than Christchurch, New Zealand :?:

Don

Ah, sorry, right now this is problematic

Once more Don and Pavel, thank you. I realised that NZSP was not quite correct when I received a message from Scott Base saying they had -5 degrees C, not -20 degrees. NZPG seems to work much better. Once more, great application and very helpful people. They are still 25 degrees colder than here

Tony (and anyone else who is interested in Antarctic weather),
There is a personal weather station at Scott Base that you can access via the Weather Underground.
