Another app/plugin you can use is GPS today, which will update the forcast for your current location, but it's not very detailed:

+1 for Weather Watcher

I actually really like Weather Watcher, but it's broken if you have Opera 9.5 installed.

It doesn't appears as if the author is optimistic for a fix.

True, but can select in Opera's options to not have it be the default browser? I'm using Iris Browser and I was having that problem so I unchecked the "make default browser" box. Now it works just fine. I can't remember if you can do that in Opera or not.

I don't know. I have a newer opera installed over the ROM opera and the new one says it's not the default browser and it still doesn't work.

There's a few people in the thread I linked having the same problem as well.

Hopefully, he'll find a fix.

I'm using TF3D, so I don't think it's going to help me any as a plugin, right?

Do what I do & run weather panel from a second today screen. I do that & it opens full screen almost instantly & works perfectly.

You can see the WP option as the right soft button:

Thats one thing I really love about WeatherPanel: the ability to add all kinds of radar maps and traffic cams. That feature is priceless.

I've used WP for ages and love the radar but don't know nuthin' 'bout no traffic cams. Could you give me a jumpstart? Do you need to know URLs to add to the Weather Images dialog? How would I get going for, say, the Chicago area?
