Product Description:

Seasonality is an application that takes weather monitoring to a whole new level with weather forecasts, satellite images, astronomical information, a weather journal, and much more. View informative icons demonstrating what weather is coming your way over the next 5-7 days. Use satellite and radar images to check out cloud cover and where it is raining or snowing. Compare this month's weather conditions to last month's, or even last year's. Keep track of just your hometown or multiple cities around the globe.

What's new in this version:

New Features
  • Leopard: Support for resolution independence; including higher resolution bitmap images, correct scrolling in the graph/forecast/satellite views, updates for the gradient display in the temperature graph, and updates in the satellite image labels to draw nicer.
  • Leopard: Sort the time zone names so they show up a nicer order in the location info and add custom location panels.
  • Several updates to the location database: added population data for over 10,000 cities, updated lat/lon coordinates for over 1,000 cities, changes in ICAO weather stations.
  • Optimized the query string to select graph data from the weather database, resulting in a 400-500% speed increase with larger databases.
  • Print the current temperature in the location table in a different color if it is higher than today's forecasted high, or lower than the nighttime forecasted low.
  • When the Option key is held down while the mouse is dragged over the graph, it now changes the time span shown.
  • Added a contextual menu (right or control click) on the satellite image to show last updated times for the satellite and radar imagery.
  • Double-clicking on the satellite image will now zoom in. Option-double-click will zoom out.
Bug Fixes
  • Fixed a bug that would cause Seasonality to crash if debugging was enabled and the forecast failed to load.
  • Fixed a bug where the show extra cities menu item would sometimes show a check mark even if the option was disabled.
  • Fixed a bug caused by the NDFD code putting an "NA" icon even when the forecast period is not yet over.
  • Fixed a display issue at the beginning of the cylindrical wind direction graph.
  • Added methods to automatically reload weather data when a location is modified in the info panel.
  • Added menu options to allow users to purchase Seasonality in a single step.
  • Moved the license agreement from the initial DMG opening to the Help menu within Seasonality.
  • Escape key is now mapped to the Cancel button in both the license window and the add custom location panel.
  • Don't show the cylindrical wind direction graph if the area is too narrow.
  • Will no longer display a forecast for -0 degrees.
  • The time view is now updated when a location's time zone is changed.
  • Display a help message if no graphs are being displayed.

Seasonality ReviewGet Application - Version: 1.5, 5/24/2008 12:10PM PST

A few days ago I started looking for a weather application that displayed alot of information.
I found Wx but sadly it only works in the USA right now. So I looked some more and found Seasonality which is uncomplicated to use and control.
It works like a charm, the only thing I noticed is the the refresh weather info every 30 minute sometimes doesn't work. When I opened it for the first time I found it displayed a little to much information. But that can be changed to your individual tastes.

Seasonality ReviewEasy to use and rich with features for the weatherbuff - Version: 1.5, 4/12/2008 04:37PM PST

I'm a long-time user of Weatherbug. I didn't appreciate the yearly license renewal and went looking for a better solution. Since I run both Windows and Mac, I started checking out Mac weather software and ran across Seasonality on Apple's downloads.

So I tried it out, and I'm hooked. Ran through the 30 day demo and then bought the license. Never been happier with a weather app!

Good stuff here - it's got the basics for those just wanting a quick weather forecast, but also has lots of features to please the weatherbuff like myself, that you don't have to turn on unless you want to, so you can have a nice, simple weather forecast tool, or a powerful weather tracking and logging tool that you can use to keep track of weather trends in your area and around the globe.

Good stuff - good price for the 5 user license too!

Seasonality Developer NoteUV Index Status Update - Version: 1.5, 12/3/2007 02:40PM PST

I just wanted to give a status update on the UV Index feature. I have spent considerable time looking for a data source and I may have found a solution that will work for locations worldwide. It's still difficult to note a schedule for this feature, but it is being actively worked on.

Thanks to everyone who has suggested this and other features...
