there is enough to keep you very interested.<br />

For overall, Week Weather is a brilliant<br />
offering. You can tailor it to suit the metrics you<br />
want and you can also alter the time period<br />
from 24-hour to 12-hour for easier viewing.<br />
More importantly, it appears to be accurate –<br />
certainly for the locations we looked at anyway.<br />
s is well designed and shows<br />
u a solid view of the week’s<br />
ather in a flash (of lightning).<br />
