[feature request] Add UV data to Weather Meter

[turbodude]

Something like this

It's from ModernGadgets, which stopped working recently.

Also the temperature unit instructions from "HOW TO Change the default language or temperature units of the Weather Meter" don't seem to be working. Appending &temp=c to URLSite just breaks the gadget... I got to metric values by setting Units=m in that file

Thanks for the feedback! I've considered this also, but never implemented it since the original addgadgets.com gadget didn't support this either. I'll look into adding this as an option, and most likely adopt the same style as ModernGadgets.

Thanks for the info about temp setting in the docs. I guess weather.com changed their API so it no longer supports this option (it was undocumented). I'll revise this instruction.

One additional comment... I would strongly suggest not changing any variables in the WeatherComJSONVariables.inc file, including the units. If/when you ever upgrade your Gadgets, this file is going to be replaced, and you will lose your settings. The proper place to make manual changes is the WeatherVariables.inc file, as mentioned in the wiki.

You should not need to manually edit this file just to force the temps, you can just right click the skin and select Custom skin actions > English (CA) to force metric units. If your locale is not one supported by weather.com, or you are creating a hybrid configuration with intentionally mismatched locale and units, that would be the only time you'd need to manually alter the file (as described in the wiki).

Completed. This feature will be in the next release of the Gadgets.
