Attracted by the minimal clean looks of the Metro UI, I cooked up this clock and weather widget.

Not really that customizable compared to P4HUDEX but there are some options to tinker with.

Double-click on the clock area to call up the Settings panel.


--INSTALLATION---------------------------------
Execute the rmskin file to install.

If you are using a portable Rainmeter installation, you can use SkinInstaller.exe to install the rmskin file.
SkinInstaller.exe should be at "[PortableInstallDirectory]Rainmeter".

More on adding Rainmeter skins here [link]


--NOTES---------------------------------
- Take care not to click on the Apply button continuously as it may cause the weather site to go defensive, close and restart Rainmeter if that happens.


--CREDITS---------------------------------
Creation: ~iron2000

Um, the settings menu isn't coming up when I double click on the clock area of the skin. -_-

Does work on my side.
Maybe you can try clicking on the white font?
But I made sure it works on the transparent area too as its not really transparent.

Another way to access Settings is via the right-click menu on the widget, under Minimet->Settings.

Pretty cool, but way too big for a small desktop like mine x)
