Good afternoon,

Is there an option or a workaround to use another weather provider other than AccuWeather that I am not aware of?
Or is AccuWeather the sole service that Xwidget can use?

Regards.

We're working on it, because all the widgets/ the weather icons codes are created based on the accuweather.com server codes.
So it's a bit hard for practical reasons.
So for now XWidget supports weather prediction from accuweather only.

I beg to differ; in my humble opinion MeteoGroup is much more precise.

I've had a difference of opinion with Slavoo on another thread, but, as far as my area is concerned, he's right. Weather Underground and Dark Sky are very good as well. Foreca and many others, not so much. The worse may be Open Weather Map. Of course, this may be one of those subjective topics, as different areas may experience more or less accuracy from a particular weather service. I must admit, though, to not being real familiar with MeteoGroup.
