gnome-shell-extension-weather is a simple extension for displaying weather conditions and forecasts in GNOME Shell, featuring support for multiple locations, no need for WOEID, a symmetrical layout and a settings panel through gnome-shell-extension-prefs.

Currently, the weather report, including forecasts for up to five days, is fetched from Yahoo! Weather.

I just pushed changes to the new openweathermap-branch. The code surely needs more cleanup, but it is ready for testing.

Up to 10 days forecast can be shown. The weather-data is provided by http://openweathermap.org .

Locations used by the master-branch ()!Yahoo) will not be deleted by the switch, but they can not be used. Make sure you use only owm locations with owm and yahoo locations with yahoo r you get incorrect (or no) results).

I'm always interested in feedback.
