After more than 7 years of fun, the WeatherDock application will come to an end. On November 15th 2011 WeatherDock will cease to function.
License termination by weather.com
Weather.com, the supplier of weather data to the WeatherDock application, has updated their licensing scheme and does no longer allow for free usage. As such WeatherDock will be cut of of weather data, this November 15th at midnight Eastern-time (EST) (GMT-5).
The future of WeatherDock
WeatherDock will definitely not continue / return in its current form, as the new weather.com licensing terms are horrendous and not commercially viable. Whether WeatherDock will return in a different form is currently undecided.
Thank you !
Thank you, for using WeatherDock for all those years and helping to make it what it has become today.
Greetings,

As of 11-17-2011, Meteorologist is still working, but I'm wondering for how long?

Of course, you'll need to reset your prefs after deleting its .plist file.

Important notice!
Dear WeatherDock users, it has come to my attention that the format of the feeds delivered by weather.com and used by WeatherDock have been changed, causing some undesired behaviour in the WeatherDock application.
I will investigate this issue and try to find a solution.
If this issue can be resolved then I will be posting a new version a soon as possible. Please check back later, or use the 'Check for updates' item in the WeatherDock menu.
Regards,
Alwin Troost

This version has stopped automatically refreshing itself and giving weather updates. I have to manually choose Refresh.
This started with this version. So I have moved to the Weatherbug widget.

The .plist file is named:
nl.alwintroost.WeatherDock.plist

I have noticed that the second week of the 10-day forecast is not appearing, coming up with a "N/A" instead. I have confirmed this happens with both the 2.4.6 and 2.4.7 versions. Perhaps it's a problem with picking the data off of weather.com.

And Xypher, there has been celsius even in previous version.
