Using 10.5.4 on an intel iMac, this works perfectly for Albany, Western Australia. Very neat little app, although a black font colour would be easier to read.

Weather Vane Usage TipMultiple City Selection - Version: 2.0.1, 7/4/2008 06:14AM PST

Search for Maple Ridge and get mine in BC and another in NB. The NB one appears in the menu according to the Lat and Long. Cannot see how to select Maple Ridge BC.

Also, the Lat and Long are out from Google Earth.

Weather Vane ReviewRescinding My Rejection: WeatherVane's Okay - Version: 1.7.1, 4/12/2008 06:30PM PST

I need to rescind my previous comment that Weather Vane doesn't work. It now appears in my Menu
Bar and works fine. My Menu Bar is crowded, but when I changed the Battery icon to Image Only, Weather Vane appeared and, after I restarted my Mac, works fine. It's pretty handy, actually. I still don't like the idea that it can only be shut off from the Menu Bar, not its icon, apparently. But that's minor, compared to the reservations I expressed before, and now retract.
