About Web Browsers Summary:

"Forecastfox is an add-on for the Firefox web browser which gives you the ability to display international and local weather forecasts in almost any of the browser's toolbars or status bars. It can be customized to display specific weather information, Doppler radar maps, severe weather alerts, and much more."

Publisher's Description:

"Get international weather forecasts from AccuWeather.com, and display it in any toolbar or statusbar with this highly customizable and unobtrusive extension."

Forecastfox Review:

"In the interest of saving time, Forecastfox displays the weather information that you need in a choice of several very convenient locations in your Firefox window, without getting in the way or forcing you to navigate to a web page just to check on the temperature. The visual interface is pleasing to the eye and the tooltips that display when you scroll over each item present the pertinent weather facts in an easy to read manner. One feature that I believe to be very useful, especially during the winter, are the severe weather alerts."
