WeatherView

Live weather for your home city and a custom watchlist, right in your toolbar — with a badge, unit toggle, and quick search.

WeatherView puts live weather right in your toolbar — no tabs, no separate app, just a click away. PIN A HOME CITY Set a home city once and see it every time you open the popup, plus its current temperature right on the toolbar icon — refreshed automatically every hour. Changed your mind? Tap the pencil icon on the card to switch it any time, no need to dig into settings. TRACK MORE CITIES Search and add as many additional cities as you want. Results are ranked so the city you're typing shows up first, not buried under unrelated matches. Each city shows up as a compact, glanceable row with current temperature, condition, and today's high/low. ADD FROM ANYWHERE Select a city name on any webpage, right-click, and add it straight to your watchlist — no need to open the extension first. SWITCH UNITS INSTANTLY One toggle flips every card between Celsius and Fahrenheit. WHAT YOU'LL NEED WeatherView is powered by a third-party weather data provider and requires a free API key, which you paste into the options page during setup — it takes about a minute to get one. Your key, home city, and city list are stored locally in your browser via Chrome's storage API; nothing is sent to any server we control, and no account or sign-up is required. WHY THE PERMISSIONS • storage — save your cities and preferences locally • alarms — refresh the toolbar badge once an hour • contextMenus — power the right-click "add city" action WeatherView runs on a free-tier data plan, so occasional rate limits or delays are possible during heavy use.
