World Weather Online doesn't supply 'Feels like', 'Dew Point' or UV Index unfortunately.

case "chanceofshowers":
case "chanceofstorm":
case "drizzle":

Since weather is an add-on, maybe there's no need for the default one to provide all possible info we used to have and maybe 2 days yahoo weather could be enough since

- we still have weather+ (prefered by weather lovers)
- you can make google weather as seperate add-on
- many users does not need weather at all

Just a thought.

Here's one - what's the proper visibility check to use in order to hide Weather link when no weather add-on is installed?
