could we pull the logged-in user's zip code out of the database and display their weather and use the default if user isn't logged in or no zip in database?

this has been requested before. unfortunately, this feature would prevent the weather module from caching its results, unless i rebuilt the caching mechanism...

extending the caching tool to accomodate logged in users who've provided zip codes as well as users who haven't (and anonymous users are a separate case, too!) would be a lot of work. additionally, this feature on a site with a good number of logged in users would generate some extra traffic for each weather lookup it did at weatherroom.com.

i'm shelving this feature request for the time being: it doesn't fit in with the intended purpose of the module.
