I love this little menu bar addition -- but it has one significant, annoying flaw.
It seems that the attempt to refresh the weather occasionally hangs -- usually once a day or more on me -- and you have to quit out of the application and restart it. This can happen if you intermittently lose the connection or if the Mac goes to sleep while it's in the middle of a refresh.
It would be much better if it "timed out" of the refresh and tried again a little later.
That is what lowers this from 5 stars to 4. Fix it (assuming it's still being maintained) and it's 5 stars.

That's started happening to me on a daily basis recently. Very annoying. I've switched to WeatherDock for now.Reply to This
