AWeather is a free/open source application which has been designed to integrate and visualize high-quality meteorological data using an interactive Virtual Globe interface suitable for a wide range of users including weather enthusiasts, academics, and professionals. It is designed to provide more information than is typically available from weather widgets and simple desktop applications. At the same time, it strives to be simpler and easier to use than existing meteorological software packages such as GEMPAK and IDV. Currently AWeather only displays data provided by the United States National Weather Service.

    Does it flag xdg-open? That's not actually malware so I'm reporting it to avast and looking for a work-around :/

    Agree with above. Useless to most of the world. Deleted it after trying to set it for Africa.

    I tried it and couldn't get much of anything out of it. It seems only U.S. states are available and no other countries. Since I live in Sweden it's useless for me. I'll stick with forecastfox.
