In case you want to quickly change what city you're looking at, you can now choose another city from the list of available cities in the top-right corner of the browser. The new city will be selected for the same page you're already on.

Note: If you are viewing the precipitation or air quality metrics, the cities which do not have these data will not be shown in the list of cities to select from.

Windchill values are now shown to the nearest degree instead of 10th of a degree where the tenth was always 0. This reflects the accuracy provided by Environment Canada.

For the cities that have this data, there are new charts for it.

The time zone used in the 24 hour graphs were in Eastern time. This has been fixed to use the correct time zone for each location.

The city weather pages now have a time indicator in the top right corner so you know when the page was last generated. All web pages are generated real-time from the server, so if the time is not accurate the page may be cached somewhere.

Some pages with metrics had graphs in .png format and flash format. The flash formatted graphs have been removed.
