Looks ok, it really lacks a radar. Please add. NOAA is reliable source of weather data. Lots of potential upside here with Forecast Fox users looking for alternative...

Used to be great, but now it errors out on lots of locations, having multiple locations doesn't work either (weird UI glitches). Also pictures just quit working as of the last 2 weeks. I'd say this extension is dead. Giving it 4 stars as it was great for the past couple of years, my hats off to the developer, but it's time to move on.
