Since practically all skins use the same weather images (to represent the current weather) could you just not set a condition that let the skin know which is the current weather image used?, and apply a set value to each of those images?

if you look under "\XBMC\media\" you will find all the weather images in "weather.rar" (there are currently 48 types of weather representive images in there, plus one additional for 'Not-Available').

PS! Look at a skin which has the current weather displayed in the home screen when available.
