Thanks for any help... Larry <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> The National Weather Service has a good app for the United States. (You don't mention where you are.) It will let you input your locality and provide a forecast for the nearest facility. I live in Rocky Point, on Long Island, NY. There is an airport and weather facility about 10 miles away. I'll put in the url for this weather station that I use, and you can see how it works. Then you can modify for you own location, assuming you're in the US. <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=40.95259893600047&lon=-72.92537585999963&site=all&smap=1#.VlusQ3ZpU0R">http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=40.95259893600047&lon=-72.92537585999963&site=all&smap=1#.VlusQ3ZpU0R</a> --doug <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> Hello Doug, Well I did check the website out, but I did not see where one can download the weather app...??? Right now I am in NC... Thanks Larry <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> If you set up the site for your area, then, if Ubuntu works like KDE in pclos, you can right click on the desktop, and select "Create New," name the file (I called it "WX"), and where it asks for the URL, copy and paste in the URL that you are presently looking at. Then you'll have an icon on the desktop, and you can open up the app like any other. If Ubuntu does not, then there must be some other system that will let you do the same thing. --doug </body> </html>
