This a module for the MagicMirror. This module shows weather conditions now using the Wunderground API. This is designed to compliment the MMM-3Day-Forecast module.
Note: The Weather company has ceased the free API that this module was based on, as a result this is now based on the API offered by BitWeather. If you are updating to this version then please don't forget to update your config too!

I hope you like this module, I know it duplicates many other weather modules, however I missed my home-brew mirrors weather information so I recreated it for MM2. Feel free to submit pull requests or post issues and I'll do my best to respond.
- Michael Teeuw for the MagicMirror2 framework that made this module possible.
- Sam Lewis whose MMM-Traffic module I use and whose code I learnt a great deal from.
- BitWeather for the helpful guides and information they publish on their API.
