Very good with one serious annoyance

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: YES

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.

Very good with one serious annoyance - Hannibal Fortune

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