SmileyHi!My querry is,are there any good freeware real world weather programs to be had out there? As the stock program requiers one to use MSN,which I dont,Im wondering what alternatives are available.I have "Personal Weather Maker",which is good,but not real world.Please advise,fellow Simheads! Grin Sad
 

To bad I cant make a living out of this,but it would probably kill me.
