Description
This is an old version. For a fully updated version of this skin check out VClouds Weather 2 and my new Glasses theme.My first Rainmeter skin - a detailed vertical weather skin.
it includes 3 sets with 8 skins each, that shows weather conditions - from current weather to a full 9 day forecast from weather.com.
To change the weather to your city location right click the skin, click edit skin, scroll down to Location and read the instructions.
* The Today/Tonight line is taken from Shivaism's Large Clean Weather skin. shivaism.deviantart.com/art/La…

How do you get the weather for more than one location?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
To run multiple instances of a skin simply copy the skin folder and paste it with a different folder name.
Now restart rainmeter and open the copied config.

I am running Windows 7 and would like to know if the folder you copy is located in the documents folder. If so, do you just copy and then rename that folder to get it to appear in the selection menu for rainmeter?
Thanks,
Ed Allen

Its located in My Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\ just copy the folder, rename it, restart rainmeter and load the new config.
You can also just copy and rename one config but sometimes its safer to copy the entire folder.

Correction, ignore the last line, you do need to copy the entire folder...

Hi,
I'm the biggest newbie you've ever seen (i discovered deviantart and rainmeter yesterday ^^)
I don't know how to move the weather skin on my desktop : it appears on the left top corner and i don't know how to move it on the right corner....
I read the instructions and figure out how to change the location (Paris/newyork...) and the units (°C/°F).
But it seems to be too complicated for my english to fix my problem!
can someone please help me?

Do you mean that the tonight forecast doesn't show or that you want to create your own weather skin with the tonight feature?
if you want to create it than the main parts for this are those:
[MeasureWeatherTemp1]
Measure
Plugin
Url=[Today]
StringIndex=4
Substitute="N/A":"666"
[CheckNATemp]
Measure=Calc
Formula=[MeasureWeatherTemp1]
IfBelowValue=665
IfBelowAction=!execute [!RainmeterHideMeter MeterNightTemp1][!RainmeterHideMeter MeterNightDay1][!RainmeterHideMeter MeterNightDesc1][!RainmeterHideMeter MeterNightIcon1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterTemp1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterDay1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterDesc1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterIcon1]
IfEqualValue=666
IfEqualAction=!execute [!RainmeterHideMeter MeterTemp1][!RainmeterHideMeter MeterDay1][!RainmeterHideMeter MeterDesc1][!RainmeterHideMeter MeterIcon1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterNightTemp1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterNightDay1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterNightDesc1][!RainmeterShowMeter MeterNightIcon1]
DynamicVariables=1
* also look at the Hidden= lines in the today and tonight sections.

It stopped working. I restarted my computer and when it came up, it wouldn't show any information. I tried using some of the other ones, checking my location code, changing my location code, and restarting rainmeter. I still can't get it to work.

It was slow to update about an hour ago but it works fine now.

I reinstalled rainmeter and now it works fine now. Must have corrupted a file or something while I was updating my computer. Thanks for the quick response.

Everytime i restart rainmeter, i get a notification that pops up saying "detection location code: [getcode] for [getcity]. Do you want to use it?" (it gives me the option of YES or NO, either way it doesnt work) also no matter what 8 digits i put in, it still wont show ANY weather information at all. i tried reinstalling but nothing seems to work...please help

I have no idea what is that notification that pops up for you.
do you have any other weather skin loaded? what version of rainmeter are you using?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
BTW the place to enter the location code is in the skin config file. click the skin, click edit skin, search for this line: Location=UKXX0085 and replace the code with yours.
You can also try version 2 [link]
