Rahul Varshney (ID: 000000e7c8332b47) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 07/24/2022 It's 10am in San Jose , California, the current temperature is 62 degrees but the new tab displays 82 degrees. Tried different zip codes, looks like the extension is showing the high temp instead of the current temp.

Robert Ritter (ID: 0000000055c8e02b) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 03/23/2020 It seems okay, but it only shows the current temperature, not the current conditions. It does show the forecast conditions for the rest of the week, though.

(ID: ) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/02/2019 I use Weather Extension Pro (by this developer) and love it! I saw Weather Tab at his site and decided to try it. When it opened, I though, "Way cool!" It is so clean that I had to come give it 5 stars immediately. The first two photos it displayed were beautiful. The information box is big, but not huge, and definitely readable.
