Tobias,
I like the module but don't particularly need to display the pressure settings or visibility. It would be nice if the admin or users had the option of displaying only the data they want (the nearest weather station to me is at a different altitude and frequently has different visibility conditions, so I'd like to be able to not show this). Of the weather stats currently available, I imagine most visitors to my site are only interested in current temp and current sky conditions (rain, sunny, partly cloudy, etc.).
Also, I think it would be nice if forecast data could be incorporated. People can see what the current weather is by stepping out their door, but for most folks, tomorrow's high/low and conditions are of more interest to people than current pressure. If it could be concisely added below the current conditions (something like "Mon: H-61, L-47, late-day showers" "Tue: H-51, L-36, partly cloudy"), this would be a REALLY useful module.
If this feature could be added, I'd like to see it have the same flexibility as above, so the admin/users could determine how many days worth of forecasts to include.
Thanks for the consideration.

toddy CreditAttribution: toddy commentedHi,
glad that you like the module, thanks. I'll consider your suggestion to optionally display only some parts of the information.
However, the forecasts are a little bit more complicated. I'm currently trying to figure out how to support them, but they're definitely on my TODO list. You'll need to be a bit patient, I guess.
Regards,
Tobias

mdowsett CreditAttribution: mdowsett commentedare there other fields that are possible to display from these weather feeds you are getting from the METARs? My site is flying related so the METARs are common data for us pilots to use and would like the option of displaying that other info as well (mainly temperature at different altitudes).

thanks for the module, very user friendly
still forecast is a must have
is there any progress on that point?
if not, can you please explain the ways you explored so that we could help you setting it up?
