The library is a bit larger than the original because of the way it was designed. This weather app uses a re-write of Farhad Siasar's YahooWeathertlb and is now called " pWeatherLib.dll". There is also a Daffy Duck Cursor that I use quite a bit for all my applications. A splashscreen was also added because the weather app takes a while to boot up. I used horizontal bar styles to display the temperature, wind velocity and wind direction using Steve Lows "NextUI library". The WoeID is used to retrieve the 5-day forecast only. I added these so you wouldn't have to go searching through Yahoo to find your WoeID. The WoeID combobox is in sync with the zipcode combobox. In this folder are the 50 states' text files that contain all the cities, towns, villages, and townships. I added a folder in the Debug folder called "states".
The application has panel animation (thanks to Fredrik Bornander) that imitates CloneDVD2's sliding frames and I also added some taskbar buttons using the WindowsAPICodePack. It displays the local weather and 4 maps (Radar, IR Satellite, HeatIndex and WindChill). This is a full weather application complete with 2-Day and 5-Day forecasts.
