It is based off an old version of Forcasefox that used weather.com. The homepage is: http://extensions.geckozone.org/Forecastfox (but that's in french, so you may want to use the mozilla plugin page found here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2024 If you don’t like accuweather, may I suggest the plug-in

If they could swap out accuweather for wunderground's data... I'd be a happier camper. But yea - to get my local weather radar to popup I just saved the URL for wunderground.com's page for my local city in my bookmarks. I type "wun" into my address bar and it's the first on my list in Firefox 3. That's all there is to it. I use Forefastfox, but I find that it’s regularly inaccurate in both temp and radar.

It sits in your menu bar, refreshing the data on it's own. Then you don't have to technically "check" the weather. It's already done and you don't have to do a thing. A much faster alternative IMO. :) An even faster way to check the weather is to download the Forecastfox add-on. It sits in your menu bar, refreshing the data on it’s own.
