If all goes well it should be in there tomorrow (november 15th) if build goes well.
OK as the automatic build of the latest win32 nightly has failed again (problem with the buildbot not with the actual code) I decided to build one locally and upload it for you guys so you can make the necessary changes ASAP: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WE71JZEG
Thanks Montellese, I was about to post the the Windows nightly failed to appear again.
Only problem I have is that Window(Weather).Property(Current.Wind) doesn't just return the wind speed as seen below.

EDIT: Is this anything to do with this localisation string?

Code:
<string id="434">From %s at %i %s</string> <!--From <wind dir.> at <speed> <unit>-->

If it is then maybe it's best left as it for current skins but adding a Current.WindSpeed property would also be useful as in my case.
that's just how old add-ons returned it, i cloned how core has always done it. that being said, you can probably have your property, i'll have to check that we have a dedicated localized string for it.
Thanks spiff.

Appreciated.

I don't know if it's important or not but Current.winddirection in the script isn't formatted the same as the other labels. I know there can be problems on some system with upper and lower case letters so I thought I'd point it out.
props are case insensitive so no worries there.
