MMM-WWI

Weather Without Icons

But Mykle, why another weather module?

I enjoy doing this. I'm not trying to compete with the real geniuses here. They are truly amazing and worthy of praise. I'm just having fun. I'm still surprised that I can make any module work. That's mostly due to the patience and generosity of my friend at the forum. He is one of those genius types that I am talking about. :^)

Why would you use this module?

It uses the minimum amount of screen real estate yet it gives you full weather conditions and forecast.
You hate icons.
I begged you. :^)
