I'm wondering why the font color in my menu bar is blue; it's harder on the eyes than regular black. I'm also wondering why there's an 8 point temperature difference between the Weather Vane menu bar and my usual weather forecaster, Meteo/Meteorologist reads. I put the same zip code in both apps.

As of this moment, Meteo beats this thing, even though temperature previews are each in their own submenu along with each day's forecast.

This could be better though if you could add a little more customizing ability, such as:

• an option to get rid of the gay pastel blue font color in favor of black
• an option to remove the temp. scale specifier (°C/°F)
• add 'zip+4' for better zip code locality
