You may notice that we have added something new - the weather! We thought that it only makes sense since we are all "weather watchers" one way or another in this industry.

Enjoy.

How often does it rotate to different locations? It's been on New York, NY for about 15 min.

Click on "Change settings (http://www.lawnsite.com/weather.php?s=&action=modifysettings)" to set the weather to your city's.

This was a great idea, Sean!
I usually check the weather online but this will kill 2 birds with one stone.
Keep up the great work.

I'm glad everyone likes it so far. There are going to be more additions like this, introduced one at a time. Some of the things we are considering are really cool - just a matter of making it work.

Great ideal on the weather! I love all of the new changes except the fact you can't edit a post after a certain time limit.

Can't you help a guy out here??? Where and how do you see the weather? I am sure it's prob simple to see and I am just overlooking it.

Thanks

walker-talker
02-11-2003, 10:02 AM
Yeah...I came across it....thanks. It must be for registered members only because I logged on at work as a "lurker" and not under my member name.

Thanks again

with plowing, i usually prefer to know what its going to do later as opposed to what its doing now...

so i set mine to nassau, bahamas. just to see what i could be enjoying right now:D

Good addition.

I always find it interesting to go through towns and cities when you can choose a location such as through the "change settings" for the lawnsite weather. I never knew CT had a town called "Abington"! I am sure it is a nice town. Any LCOs on here from there?

You can...it should be an adjustment in your personal profile settings.

P.S. Are you sure most of the members are from the Central Time Zone?

The weather was a great idea! But! If there was a radar shot that'd be the icing on the cake!

Very impressive! I can't beleive that it could be narrowed down to my city. We got spell checker and weather, whats next?

Great addition on the weather.
Here is a site you might or might not have heard of.
http://www.weatherbug.com This site installs on your computer. When you are on the net it will show you the forecast and everything including radar. The neat thing is once you exit out it will display the temp on your task bar. If there is an alert, i.e. thunder storms, snow storms, floods, etc. a little bug will appear on your task bar you click it on and the warning comes up. Very handy while you are working on your billing or what ever.
