Chrome Extension to view the active temperature of a Weather Underground Station.
Features:
– Updates every 5 minutes
– Click on icon to view Station page at Weather Underground
– Options page to set Station ID, Celcius/Fahrenheit and refresh interval.
Updated v1.1:
– Change refresh interval on the Options page.
Does not show the current temperature on the icon. It simply serves as a link to the specified weather station. That’s what bookmarks are for, this thing is useless.
No longer works
Used to be great, but sometime in late 2019 the extension became useless as it wasn’t reporting the correct temperature on on computer, and was stuck at 49.9F indefinitely on another. Seems to correspond with when they overhauled the app on phones. I uninstalled the extension, seems like it has been abandoned.
If you get the right temperature, it won’t stay correct for long. Loses updates so it displays old temperatures. Change to another station, no change. Seems like abandonware from the looks of things.
Doesn’t show the correct temperature anymore. Since this extension hasn’t been updated since 2016, I think it’s safe to say that it’s dead. Time to find a replacement.
Have been using for years, but very recently the temp showing in the extension bar does not reflect the temp at the station. Mine has been showing exactly 59.8F for about 3 weeks without changing, regardless of the actual temp.
Went from great to useless.
So this extension used to work great. I would have given it a 4 or 5 stars. But now it’s only 1 star because the temp shown in the top right says something 20F higher than what it actually is outside.
It stopped showing the temperature in the extension bar in Chrome after update….
Used to work very good, not sure if latest Chrome version or not, but temperature is very wrong all the time now.
I thought this would be like the widget on a phone, but it’s not. You can choose the station yourself like on the phone. But unlike the phone version, have to know the name of the station, where on the phone you can use a map to pick the station. You can set up a small pop up window when you right click it instead of it taking you to a website – https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KNVLASVE611/widgets
I didn’t bother trying it out.
I didn’t like it because, the dashboard widgets didn’t have enough information, doesn’t show a weekly forecast, pollen info, and i didn’t like going to a website. I wish it were more like if you chose the widget then clicked on it, it would display a bigger pop up with all the stuff like the phone vers.
Love the website and the widget for embedding. I used to enjoy using this from Chrome, but nowadays, it always fails, giving a 404 error. Wish you would fix it…
Great. You have to have to look for the station id but that’s pretty simple.
I couldn’t log in … so uninstalled .. great app other wise ,,, please email me when you fix login in… [email protected] ty
When u click on the icon it opens a page (with wrong locaiton btw) instead of a little widget like it does in Firefox.
It would be nice to have a tool tip displaying a glance of the current weather data (temperature, wind…) when just touching the icon in the extension bar.
Nice and minimalistic.
Only one I can find where you can choose the weather station yourself.
Simple and Perfect!
Passt eigentlich sehr gut. Schön wäre vielleicht, wenn man unter den Optionen auch das Update-Intervall (derzeit fix 5 Minuten) ändern könnte.
