I just dumped my version of your myweather.xml into Aeon Nox just to check and it works fine without any additions. Just needs a few adjustments with positions and font sizes as you said. You do lose the side panel though. I think Aeon-Nox is sufficiently different to other skins that it is hard to adapt bits from other skins to it

Well happy to put any cleaned up Nox version in the wiki if anyone has time to knock it up. But I am super busy @ work right now so no chance of me doing it for a while.
Addons I wrote &/or maintain:
OzWeather (Australian BOM weather) | Check Previous Episode | Playback Resumer | Unpause Jumpback | XSqueezeDisplay | (Legacy - XSqueeze & XZen)
Sorry, no help w/out a

The OzWeather add-on is great mate. A most unusual problem does occur for me and I have no idea why. If I decide to put the date beside days 1 to 7 for instance, I use the following code (this for day 3):
$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Daily.3.ShortDate)]
In OzWeather it doesn't show up; however, if I switch over to Weather Underground, I lose the radar (naturally) but the dates appear for all the days.
If I then switch back to OzWeather, the radar is back and the dates remain until I restart. They then disappear again.
In fact any attempt to use that code in a home screen label fails to show while using OzWeather.
Any idea why?

pan2 could you share your modified file for Aeon Nox?

Well that is a step by step guide really. just copy the skin from the system directory to your local addons directory. Go into addon.xml, change the name to ConfluenceDocG or whatever, and then copy those three files from the zip into your new skin's 720p folder. Reboot, choose your newly named skin as your skin. You should now have radar!

I've had a bit of fun installing ozweather on a raspberry pi running raspbmc. The short form (just forecasts) worked straightaway, but the extended form with the radar loop always crashed with a "weather.ozweather script error!". A bit of debugging revealed that PIL is not in the raspbmc distribution, so I installed it via "sudo apt-get install python-imaging" and this fixed the error.
The radar loop now works, but it seems to really stress the pi with 100% cpu utilisation. Changing the location locks up the machine, requiring a hard reboot. Any way of running ozweather without PIL, say by pre-installing the required background images? Sorry if this has been answered before, but I tried searching and found nothing about this.
