Before going away on a trip – or maybe even before booking it – it’s a good idea to check the weather, to know where the best weather is, what to expect and what to pack.
The Firefox addon 1-ClickWeather is a great travel tool. It gives you a lot of 1 click choices instead of just one type of forecast.
- A quick view of the current weather
- Doppler radar maps (severe weather alerts, when applicable)
- International satellite maps
- Up to 5 days forecasts within the browser
- Instant access to hour-by-hour and 10-day forecasts
- Video synopsis of weather conditions for the next 72 hours
I really liked the fact that I could choose where I wanted it, in my case up on the menu row, since my status bar is full…
One more thing: it gave me an excellent forecast for Stockholm today with a big sun! We hardly have seen it at all lately, so I’m heading out in the sunshine!

Lifecruiser ♥ Sunny weather
So is it 5 day forecasts or 10 day forecasts? I’ll be happy if I can wake up and get the weather forecast right just for the whole day.
Sure you will have a nice weather next summer in august!
Thanks for the tip. Its installed and on my status bar right now and I like the weather forecast too. You know we’ve had days of snow lately, but now FireFox says there is hope for sun
I installed it, is VERY cool! Thanks.
If you want to plan your holiday (to Paris at least) a bit further ahead than a week – I have a chart on my blog which tells you year round weather in Paris
You could probably find something similar for other countries too
