Usage

There are 3 attributes: places, unit and cachetime.

  • Places. Must be formatted WOEID|text
    For example
    845743|Tallinn, Estonia
    807392|Győr, Hungary
    487978|Brzesko, Poland
    746203|Porto, Portugal
    753692|Barcelona, Spain
    23388162|Soverato, Italy

  • To get the WOEID for a city, use this website: http://woeid.rosselliot.co.nz

  • Unit is the temperature unit. ‘c’ for Celsius, ‘f’ for Fahrenheit. (If no unit is set, it displays the default Celsius)

  • Cachetime is optional. If not set, it will be the default 300 seconds. It means that the script will update the weather data every 300 seconds (5 minutes). You problably don’t ever have to change it.

You can also style the weather. The weather is in a span with a class yahooweather.
