The actual weather is light snowing. The fanarts that show is from folder 14. I think folder 14 is "Cloudy/Flurries"

the fanart pack needs reorganizing. xbmc is returning the proper code 14 for the icon it's displaying.

Thanks for the info.
It's now a little bit tricky to find out which folder should use for which weather and day/night situation.

Regards
if you organize it, would you please keep track of what you did.

a tip, maybe you know. but find your xbmc/cache folder.
there will be a weather/128x128 with the icons.

should help/
I start to reorganize the pictures but for some points I am a little bit confuse and need help to understand.

The weather icon in the cache area very helpfully and I hope I understand that correct.

The icon with the sun in the background are for day.
The icon with the moon in the background are for night.
The icon without sun or moon are for day/night.

So a icon for night snowing (46.png) avialable, but the icon for day snowing is missing. In my homearea it is possible thats snow on daylight.

How will differ is day or night? Is their a special hour that switch from day to night and from night to day?

How will use for some weather situation the part without day/night. Last day it was snowing and the folder 14, 16, and 42 was in use. This are generally folder for snowing with differ intensity. In the night it was light snowing and the folder 14 is in use. If the weather switch to snow this night, is than the folder 46 in use or the folder 16.

Is a correct folder description available?

This one works not very well.
Example this night at midnight it was a very nice cold night with partly cloudy.
The weather page describe fair, but the folder 33 is in use, depends on the icon. The folder description is hazy/night. But for my understanding is fair and hazy not the same weather.

I hope someone have some answers to me, to make the reorganisation a little bit easier and mainly we get a better result.

Thanks

i've checked the Debug Log in your trac ticket and this is what weather.com reports:

Quote:<cc>
<lsup>2/1/10 10:20 AM Local Time</lsup>
<obst>Dusseldorf, GERMANY</obst>
<tmp>0</tmp>
<flik>-4</flik>
<t>Light Snow Shower</t>
<icon>13</icon>

so xbmc should load fanart images from the '13' subfolder.
check if there are some images in this folder at your end.
