From the developer: "Weather Analyst is designed to run through a network, however it runs great on a home computer as well, optionally logging information to a csv file. With this format you can load it into excel and trend parts or all of the weather. This information can be updated at various levels from 1 minute to several hours. When minimized, it drops on to the traybar and when you hover your mouse over it, it gives you current temperature. It uses minimal resources and works quitely behind the scene. With local map and 10 day forecast give you all the information you need. It also will work through a proxy or a firewall."
