Wx 5.31
About Wx
A specialized internet weather app for Mac OS X that downloads and processes weather information and forecasts for the United States. The software links to free XML data on the internet from the US National Weather Service, and presents it in an attractive user-friendly interface.
Wx can be configured to track weather conditions, watches/warnings/advisories, live radar, and forecast information for up to 20 locations, and it can download up to 20 weather maps or images. Optional add-ons allow each user to customize Wx for their lifestyle, hobbies, and activities. Wx downloads data on-demand, and can be configured to download data automatically on a periodic basis. Current weather conditions are summarized in the app’s dock icon and dock menu, a floating “MiniWx” panel, and a Quartz screensaver. The WxAlert feature can send e-mails and SMS text messages, sound an alarm, or run an AppleScript when a severe weather alert is issued by the NWS. Wx can export settings for an iPhone or iPod Touch, allowing it to use the Mobile Wx web app.
Wx runs on OS X 10.4.x and is a universal PowerPC/Intel application.
