The plugin works to an extent however when you refresh your site it changes the weather update no matter what even when there is no change in the weather. I do not advise you install until this is fixed! Other than this a great plugin and easy to customise! Using <div id="simpleweather-widget"></div> I can place it anywhere including my header so that is great but shame it no longer works. No updates since 2 years ago!
