Thanks for letting me know. I will fix it soon.

The forecast information for the capital cities has stopped working over the last week or so, ie when you touch the current temperature for a city, it only says "asdf".

Good suggestions. I will add some configuration options. I will do some testing to track down that bug (I have not noticed that happening).

I love Chumby and I think this feature would be great! Well done, thinkquick.

I just added forecast information for the capital cities. Just touch the current temperature for that city to display it. Sorry for the average formatting - that is how the BOM sends it to me.

Yeah is it possible to make the radar for perth The below kmz file has the feeds for all the major radar loops both 128 and 256 km loops if that would help. http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/placemarks/43001-AustralianWeather.kmz

thinkquick - great work on the animation. I'd had my Chumby turned off for a few days, and when I turned it back on today I was greeted with moving images! Thank you! :D

Looks excellent! If you're looking for feature suggestions, could I suggest a current temperature (for the nearest capital city) overlay? I'd love to see a local radar with the current temperature clearly readable. Thanks!

I am working on an animated version at the moment. There are so many other maps and so much information available that it is going to be hard to decide what to do next.

Looks pretty cool. I agree that the individual rain radars would be good too.

this looks great! I've added it and will try it when I'm at home.

This looks great - I'd love it if there was a way to just show one state though. I'm not sure if that would be better as an option, or a separate widget, hmm. (...and animation's always good, please!)
