The latest ForecastFox 'fixed version' has settings to place it on the bottom like it used to be.
It is no where close to having the correct temperature for over a week, hence why i am asking for an alternative !!!!!!!
There are no alternatives, as all get their forecasts from AccuWeather. The Weather.com feed, which was far more accurate, was closed over 8 years ago.

I am still looking for another extension that might be able to place the weather forecast at the bottom of the window other than forecastfox fix version if there is one. TIA

Already covered..

Well, I'm still looking for world peace, but your stated reason for wanting an alternative is this -
It is no where close to having the correct temperature for over a week, hence why i am asking for an alternative !!!!!!!
...and as any and all weather extensions get their weather.xmls from the same source....you see where this is going?

Seems redundant to want to see what the weather is like from an extension which gather's it's information frome government sites which provide accurate the weather.
This link NOAA weather has the capability to help pinpoint your location.
Once you've selected the location bookmarking the site will maintain the Longitude and Latitude and provide current conditions, warnings and a week's worth.
If detail is important why waste time with an extension plus there's the added benefit of no tracking and a smaller footprint.

I, use the, Forecastfox fix version, and have it set to reload every minute or so, and it does exactly that. It, will update just like it's suppose too, and I have it placed on the main toolbar, which is where I want it, or I can have it anywhere I want it. Just select the options and you are good to go. What else are you expecting for it to do? 8-)

I'm using AniWeather, instead of Forcast Weather. I have it on the bottom status bar, and works great. 8-)
