For a different perspective about weather-related applications,
take a peek at the Norwegian Met office free-access portal: http://yowindow.com

sWeather does feature two tray icons: http://skwire.dcmembers.com/apps/sweather/img/tray.png
One shows the current weather condition and the other shows the current temperature. You can turn off the temperature one in the Options dialog.

I'm getting 2 system tray icons, one is Skype like :/

@ahohen: sWeather simply "runs" the URL so it should use your default browser. I have Firefox set as my default browser and, when I click a "Full forecast" link, it opens in Firefox.
v1.4.0
Suggestion: When clicking "Full Forcast", it uses Internet Explorer to get to Yahoo. Use Firefox instead, or at least give us a choice. Firefox is #1 in my book. Thanks.

@Skwire Jody: Thanks for the info. Excellent app.
V1.3.2
FWIW, a couple versions ago, I added an integrated WOEID lookup into sWeather's Options panel. You can search on all sorts of things, including addresses, landmarks, etc..
