That looks better.  

It was pretty easy to set up as well.  Just go to the app exchange listing link referenced above and be sure to go to the installed applications in setup to configure it with one additional step: you need to register with the openweather and get the app api key.  The instructions for setup are here: Click Here

​Enjoy!
