Hi! Pablo24k, welcome to W7F :)
Your situation may be a little different being your in another country, and I think a different system, but it still sounds like you could enter your Postal code that you use there in Toronto.

Okay, I can't find my code ANYWHERE, and everything that is supposed to tell you your code seems to be down. I need the code for Troy, Alabama, and I'm using the 10-Foot-HUD Weather.

Hi! GreysonMotes, welcome to W7F :)

If you follow omegatron's advice, and apply your zip code there in Troy, that should get you fixed up.

For both Pablo24k, and GreysonMotes:

I am not sure how or where omegatron located the configuration file he shows in post #6, but there may be a Notepad.txt file in your respective program files that you could apply Edit > > >(Your codes to) or if you have a configuration box like he shows in post #10, You could enter it there.


Something to keep in mind.........

Borrowed from newsposter post #9 at this link:
Rainmeter HUD and 10-Foot HUD Weather

All of the weather applets go through this from time to time. The weather 'providers', weather.com, accuweather, etc all get tired of third-party apps screen-skimming data and repackaging it for unregistered (of the main web site) users. The programmers need to make some internal adjustments to adapt to the changes made in the source web sites and then release updated applets.

If weather is important to you, there are a few choices:

hope that the programmer who makes your weather applet stays on top of his data sources whether he's poaching or not.

actually go and register at one of the weather providers and use their applet

switch weather applets to one that pulls the free data from the US National Weather Service. I'm sure that OCONUS users have local met ofices that have free data available.

Personally, I like the NWS. Presently here in Cental Pa. It's:


A Few Clouds 98°F (37 °C). Fifth day for 90° temps with three more to go.........



I know.....I'll hear from the Arizona crowd......

• Humidity:26%
• Wind Speed:Vrbl 3 MPH
• Barometer:30.03" (1016.5 mb)
• Dewpoint:58 °F (14 °C)
• Heat Index:97 °F (36 °C)
• Visibility:10.00 mi.

No precip until late Friday or Saturday, then its only 30% chance.
