What's New

Recent version notes:

• 10.0 - 10.5:
  • Starting with Version 10.0, I have started using a different data provider. The previous provider became insanely expensive.
  • Updates to Radar/Satellite images - some sources moved servers again.
• 9.01 - 9.02:
  • Updates to Radar/Satellite images - some sources moved servers again.
• 9.00:
  • New data feeds.
    Unfortunately, this caused several problems:
    1)..a lot of code rewriting to use the new data feeds,
    2)..my data sources have increased their pricing dramatically (4X!),
    3)..Old versions will stop working soon because they are shutting down the old servers.
    
    I'm releasing this 9.00 version a little early so that most of the basic features will be working. There are still some qwerks that I need to work-out (ie: Warnings, Alerts, etc), and I'll continue to improve these as I get time. As for pricing, I'm going to have to increase my pricing to see if I can try to break-even. This is unfortunate, but I don't want to offer software and have to lose money doing so. Soon you may see a message stating that you'll need to upgrade. If you currently have a subscription, please cancel it and re-register under the new pricing so that I can continue to develop this software. Pricing will be updated very soon. Thanks for your support!

  • Many minor fixes and enhancements.
  • Improvements so that Weather1 can eventually run as a portable application from a USB flash drive or portable hard drive.
    NOTE: After vs. 8.10, Weather1 no longer uses the Windows registry to store user preferences. Instead, they are stored in the Weather1.ini file. This will aid in Weather1 being able to run from a portable USB flash drive, etc. Weather1 will automatically move user preferences from the Windows registry to the Weather1.ini file for you, and will then clean those from the registry.
    Warning: If after installing 8.10 or later, should you decide to return to an older version, the user preferences will no longer exist since older versions require they be in the Windows registry.
