Looks great, best so far. Gotta run it around the block a few times, so let's see how it shakes out...

I always check the weather the minute before I go out, so the need for this kind of add-on is crucial to me. A really helpful little ad, working perfectly here in New York.

Hi! I did a fresh install of Firefox yesterday (removed previous configurations etc. since it was a long time ago I had it in my Ubuntu and wanted to make sure there are no compatibility issues). I have installed a bunch of extensions such as NoScript, AdBlock Edge, Ghosty etc. Even when those are disabled I'm still unable to add a new location. New York is the default one (it cannot be removed but can be renamed) and nothing else appears when I use the search field for new locations. At first I thought it was the city I was choosing (although not as famous as some capital it is still there on the map and it's present on the website of accuweather) but then I tried with cities such as London, Paris, Berlin, Beijing, Tokyo, Sidney etc. and it still wouldn't budge. Please fix it or give some feedback what we can do to make it work.

Awesome. There's days that are difficult in the past. But working awesome now.. love it cause it keeps me up to date with the current weather situation. But, like I said.. when things are working perfect. Been using it for a year now. I downloaded 2.2.2, but not sure if this is an upgrade... Or what I have already...... But its worth saving incase I need to reistall

It's great, but with the version here (2.2.2), the radar won't update until closing and reopening Firefox. This is fixed in 2.2.4, but that version is difficult to find. Additionally, it's completely unusable on Australis (FF29+).

Love how adaptive the add on is, one of the few that you can drag anywhere and it has dozens of options, if you like to play with them and make it perfect for your needs and wishes.

I had to uninstall this app. It always shows lower temps than any other weather app shows . It is by Accuweather and Accuweather is definitely not the most accurate weather forecast. I had to uninstall this. I did not like the way it looked either. Need a good reliable weather forecast. Yahoo weather is correct for me but doesn't have an app for a browser.

I would even settle for a option to 'update radar' similar to 'Reload Weather Data'. Is no one supporting this app anymore?

Pretty decent app. It's a nice improvement to have over having to check weather.com every time I want to know what's going on. I recommend it. Thanks!

Great add-on; it saved me from frostbite or heatstrokedue to temp.difference outdoors ;P . And of course, it also prepares you for various precipitation and other atmospheric phenomena.
Gets up-to-date info from accuweather, a decent service--which was relatively unknown outside the internet until this very popular add-on was created years ago--derives data and info. from various corroborating local, regional, and global meteorological and sources.
It includes many options to display differing number of days, a "radar" or satellite screen, and hazardous weather alerts, all shown with customizable sets of icons and text in metric (SI) and/or nonstandard (e.g. imperial) units. There have been many widgets and extensions since this one, but this was one of the first with rich functionality, making it a huge success.
***Unfortunately, this is yet another victim of 28.0a1 "australis" and I haven't been able to use it since updating Firefox the second 'night' (daytime here). Mozilla wants us to get used to a minimalist UI, and I'm sure they'll show the authors how to fix this. That said, WHY??? This UI looks like G. Chrome, right down to the icons and the appbox-like sliding button menu. So, in the first Nightly build it was still working, and there are obviously many similar extensions and widgets for Chrome. They want us to give up our beloved status bar and add-on toolbar, which is now a flickering tooltip and nonexistent, neither can hold this extension's display. Furthermore, there's no option in australis to create additional blank toolbars without extensions. IMHO, this change is incredibly stupid, because the logical conclusion is to simply use Chrome (or Opera, Safari,etc. ), when Firefox will eventually look and behave very similar to those competitors' browsers... AND I wouldn't be surprised at all if they have an accuweather plug-in.***
