Beskrivning

Belgo Meteo will display Belgian weather info (current observations and forecast) in a widget.
Several Belgian sources of information are included:

IRM/KMI (the official Belgian national weather center - www.meteo.be)
Meteo Belgique/Meteo Belgie (an alternative weather forecast website - www.meteobelgique.be)
Shower radar (Buien radar - www.meteox.be)

Using Belgian sources of weather information insures that the forecast/observations are the most precise possible.

Vanliga frågor

Can I have several instances of the widget in the sidebar ?: Yes, you may have several instances of the widget in the sidebar and choose options independently for each of them.
Why is the Meteo Belgique forecast only displayed in French when I select English or German as display language ?: The weather info from Meteo Belgique/Meteo Belgie is only available in French or Dutch. When you select Meteo Belgique forecasts, the widget will automatically default to French if you choose English or German as display language.
How can I change the way the weather info is displayed ?: Belgo Meteo only modifies very slightly the way the weather info is displayed by the various providers. If you want to modify colours or background, for example, you will need to modify the css by modifying/adding the belgometeo.css file.
Please be aware that this file does not contain all css used by the display. Many css rules are left untouched and are coming straight from the providers. You can overrule them by specifying your own css in the belgometeo.css file.
