    How do I download the following Site to come up when I want the Weather? Is there a way to have an Icon for it, or do I have to call up the Browser, which seems to take forever to load?

    Denver, Colorado (80002) Conditions & Forecast : Weather Underground

    Thanks

    I would honestly download weatherbug. Just make sure you get the free version. It is wonderful, I love it. There are two icons: One is a cute little bug that displays the temperature (I keep this one on my homescreen) and the other is an icon that you can click to give you your forecast. The buggie icon also keeps you up to date on alerts. Absolutely wonderful program!!!

    I've never found this one. I found one called Weatherbug Direct that had two icons but they never did squat automatically and didn't show the temp or anything. Currently I have the one that asks for activation, but it also shows radar maps, etc.

    km - That's weird. Try the link noroll posted. Mine works great - the little bug even flashes red when there is a new alert in my area, and you can set the intervals at which it updates the temp/etc. Mine is set for every 10 minutes so I'm always up to date on the weather.

    ah ha! At the time I was using a non-Dimension theme, and it requires you use a Dimension theme to work entirely correct.

    Did you find out a way to add an icon to the desktop? I think the best weather application has been defined.

    Weatherbug doesn't seem to show me any info unless I click on it. Is this because I'm using my tmobile zen theme?

    That's too funny. Not. But I had to laugh. I USED to live there...was a nurse at Luke AFB. It was 120 when I drove into town for my first assignment and I thought I was gonna die! Back in Colorado now.

    I hope you survive

    The only thing that bugs me (no pun intended) is that is has 2 icons. Why couldn't they just have everything into 1?

    Uh oh....ummm...you know how when you're on those sites and they ask if you accept the Terms of Agreement and they're too long to read so you just say 'yes'? Well, I did and now I'm getting Weather alerts and I think I read somewhere that costs $2.99 a month. Did I do that?
