Thank you for your efforts! I believe you gave me the yowindow.xml I am using now.
Well i installed and yowindow is reading the yowindow.xml generated by my my WeatherCat.

As the online "how to'  http://yowindow.com/pws_setup.php  is using windows file pointing, my xml location is coded in the step  6 as /Users/wvdkuil/Desktop/processedfiles/yowindow.xml

I also copied the xml you posted and it works also, it is translated to my native C,mm,hPa

So carefully check your YoWindows settings, especially
1. the path to the file must be in the  unix way /Users/YourName/location of the file/yowindow.xml
2. You must point to the translated yowindow.xml NOT the one with the tags.

Succes, Wim

Please send me the xml your weathercat generates. Do I need to change weather cat to output as metric (C)? If so, where would I do that?

Please send me the xml your weathercat generates.
File is attached, unzip and test.
You can always get a fresh one from http://www.weerstation-leuven.be/weather2/uploadWC/yowindow.xml

No, Yowindow takes care of that.
I tried your xml, I copied it from your post a few days ago.
It displays nicely in the yowindow screensaver on my Mac.

It is solved!! The problem was that yowindow unit setting was for Centigrade. As soon as I changed to to Fahrenhite, it worked! Thanks, so much for your help. The clue was your mentioning the centigrade issue you saw in my yowindow.xml
