Perhaps when MACOSX comes out it might work better or not.I assume you mean when a version of Weather Display comes out for a new version of "MACOSX"? I have no idea when/if the maker of that app updates the app. However, there will never be a new "MACOSX" Apple has dropped the "MAC/Mac" part of the name. It will simply be "OS X", just like there is no "iPhone/Pad OS", just "iOS".
... one vote here for Cumulus...
...but worth considering....
I'm not sure how appropriate this thread is on the WC forum?
But, one vote here for Cumulus, it isn't as comprehensive as WD but supports a different philosophy. I use it to put the data in database, then I can extract all the stats I want that may be missing from the base application.
The new version - MX - is a server/client based app, you use a browser as the admin interface. It is also cross platform, the same executable runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac under Mono. I run my copy on a Raspberry Pi.
Very different from WD and WeatherCat and isn't for everyone, but worth considering.
Brian Hamilton will rewrite his program if you need something different and responds PDQ.
Weather Display for Mac, is lacking and needs a lot of work. Perhaps when MACOSX comes out it might work better or not.

When looking at your website it seems that Cumulus does a really good job. If I ever will go away from Mac OS I will use Cumulus.
I received a reply from Davis Instruments on the question of are they ever going to upgrade their mac version:

Stu or mods, please remove if post is inappropriate. I thought it was appropriate given the category title.
I received a reply from Davis Instruments on the question of are they ever going to upgrade their mac version:I have asked Davis that same question for probably 8 years and the answer is always exactly the same. I even offered to be a beta tester. To that letter the CEO answered he is keeping my letter on his desk as a reminder; that was 3 years ago.
