Hannibal FortuneA couple of suggestions for improvements. One is that there should be a variable refresh interval. The other programs have it. This seems to be refreshing once an hour, and that's way too seldom. Up to once every 15 minutes would be better. And right now, the days and nights in the menu blend together. It would be better to have alternating background colors for the rows, white for day and light gray for night. Just for the text, though. Leave the icon column with a white background so the icons don't need to be changed with transparency.

1) An option to show a local and/or state image of radar like the meteorologist app does
Here is an image of it in action here:

2) An option to show how many inches of snow accumulation is predicted instead of only saying "light snow", "heavy snow", etc.
If WeatherDock added these two things, I wouldn't be frustrated by having to go to actual weather sites with the Safari browser and could just rely on WeatherDock. While we're at it, another option to turn red or some other type of alert to show when there are severe weather alerts posted.
