FIN Bucket new Weather Widget

Here is a fantastic new addition to FIN Bucket, it is a complete weather widget that you can simply download and publish into your next FIN project. This FIN file leverages the Niagara weather service’s Current and Forecast data which is dynamically bound using powerful queries (that are already built right in). The current conditions include both daytime and nighttime icons that get animated using the Binding Editor. The 7-day forecast was quickly created using the Item Renderer horizontal layout, we made the first day and the rest of the days were dynamically drawn from the query! Watch the video for more information on how to download/convert this Weather Widget to work with your very own stations.
