[PLUG] Weatherbug for Linux


http://weather.weatherbug.com/labs/linux.html

I tend to be obsessed with the weather as I drive a scooter to work whenever 
the weather permits (temps >26⁰⁰⁰; low chance of significant precipitation).

I like the weatherbug web site because the weather station is blocks from my 
home.  I don't like weather.com because it thinks Glenside is closer to 
Chalfont than Philadelphia (19038, in fact, borders Philadelphia).

Anyway, there is now a Linux version.  Simple, informative, unobtrusive, and 
as far as I can tell, not open source.  Only available as RPM of DEB, not 
source.

Conventional wisdom is that the windows version is loaded with spy/adware.  
Any word on the Linux version?
