Hi there,

New here, found out about this site through PDA24/7, really like what I see. I thought I'd contribute by sharing a link I use with plucker to get updated weather in Canada. I know some people have been looking for Canadian specific weather forecasts so here we go.

I live in Toronto so I use http://text.weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/forecast/city_e.html?yyz&b_templatePrint=true .

EDIT: The above link was being parsed even when I unchecked parsing so I took the link away, so you'll have to copy and paste, sorry

Now I know this is long but if you know your city code you can use the same link, just replace yyz (Toronto's city code) with your citie's code.

This site is the Enviroment Canada site so it should be accurate...right? :-) Here is the main page link http://weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca

Basically all I did was go to the site then select my city, click on the printable version then use that link in Plucker. I don't know iSolo so I can't tell you how it works there, works great in Plucker/JPluck.
