What is Tray Weather?
Tray Weather is a simple application to retrieve and show weather information for a given geographic location in a small dialog and in the Windows OS system tray. When executed the application sits in the system tray, showing the current weather icon. The tray icon tooltip shows the location, weather description and temperature. The tray menu provides access to the weather and configuration dialogs. If there is a network error and the information cannot be retrieved the tray icon will inform of the error and show the error icon.
The computer location can be automatically obtained by using the services of https://ip-api.com/ or entered manually by specifying latitude and longitude coordinates. The weather and maps information are obtained from OpenWeatherMap. To obtain weather information from OpenWeatherMap you need to register in their website and enter the given API Key into the Tray Weather configuration dialog.
Comments and Reviews
Fantastic weather program. Loads of features and best of all, it's free. Def the best weather application for Windows imo.
It doesn't reach the newly set API key. I cannot recommend to avarage users anyway because of the struggle to set this up - even if it's working. There are good Android apps out there with selectable free weather services (AccuWeather, Foreca, MET Norway, AerisWeather, Apple Weather, Weatherbit, World Weather online), like Weawow, so I don't understand why it's so hard to achieve that level of comfort under Windows where the user doesn't have to fk around with APIs.
