Dulux WeatherShield WeatherDesk 1.01

If you wish to have your own personal weather station, covering over 400 locations across Australia, on your desktop, then this free program from Dulux might work for you. This application has a nice compact interface that only takes up a tiny amount of space on your desktop even when extended. The program includes an option for changing locations, and you can even change the color of your WeatherDesk interface to suit yourself.

WeatherDesk will provide you with latest weather reports and conditions, as well as a 3-day forecast with temperature details. Using the mouse rollover feature, you can see even more detailed information about humidity, rainfall, and wind speed and direction. The up-to-date weather information you receive to your WeatherDesk application comes from the Bureau of Meteorology via The Weather Company who, since 1998, have become Australia's leading Internet and media weather information provider. The Weather Company specializes in supplying and producing weather graphs, on-air weather presentations, and their team of meteorologists covers evolving weather issues across Australia. When your WeatherDesk application is minimized, it sits neatly in your computer's taskbar and for more detailed weather information, you only need to extend it and select the "more weather" option menu for any location of your choice.
