On tray tooltip hourly forecast show the hour number in addition to the forecast icon
Tray tooltip skin shows hourly forecast icons only but does not show the actual hour number (ie. 5pm, 6pm...) making it difficult to determine the hour of the forecast. Including the hour number in addition to the forecast icon would be very helpful.

Make it possible to specify preferred station order
I wasn't sure how to word this one. Currently whenever my preferred station becomes unavailable (which is often), there is another one--which is close by--that gets used. Every time. The problem is I hate that station, since it usually shows temps that disagree wildly with NWS stations and my own outdoor thermometers. I wish I could tell WWL which station(s) to use as backup(s).

On Splendid2 skin have pressure bar graph show with decimal places.
Pressure bar graph only shows whole numbers making it of little use in looking at the pressure range for the day. Graph should show decimal places in order to be of any useful information.

Add support for using WW's skins.
There are many skins made for WW that would look very nice with WWL data.

Easier way to tell if weather info is timely
Sometimes WWL has trouble getting the newest data from weather stations. This suggestion is to check the system date/time and compare it to last "Observed" time. If the difference is beyond a configurable limit, make it obvious (something like a red "light" in the main window title bar?). If the difference is within limits, make that clear as well (green "light" in the title bar?).

Weather Station Favorites
I believe a value added upgrade would be to add Station Favorites to the main window as Weather Exchange has done. You can add your Stations to a column on the right which displays very basic weather info; temp, humidity, wind. You can also open the detailed window from the favorites, you don't have to go to options to change Stations or right click the Station Bar in the main window.

Ability to mark spots on desktop magnets
I love having maps on my desktop, but I wish I could mark my exact location on them. I sort of accomplished this by adding an extra magnet and setting that magnet's image to a tiny red spot I made in an image editor, then moved it to the appropriate location over the other magnet (map). But this didn't work for long, since there was no way to ensure that the "red spot" was on top of the other magnet. I think this is an awesome idea that you should implement posthaste. You do too. Yes you do. Yes you… more

Allow alerts sounds to be disabled during certain hours of the day and enabled at other times.
This way, one can leave alerts enabled but one does not have to get awakened in the middle of the night if he/she does not want to.
