WX Gadgets (third party)

Hello, all. I'd been using (albeit Russian) a Win7 gadget
"WeatherCenter" for several years without a hitch until about a month or
so ago. I'd been getting weather updates from "theweathernetwork.com"
but the gadget can also be configured to connect to weather.com,
accuweather.com, weatherunderground.com or weatherbug.com. The gadget
is now unable to establish connection with any of these sites and it
doesn't appear to be a firewall issue on my end. Does anyone know how
to get this gadget working again or know of an alternate Win7 desktop
gadget/widget that works? Thanks for your time and comment.

Just curious, did you check the Win 7,8,10 Gadget Site?

I've been using the Main Weather one for a few years and it's still
working.

And I use one out of BgadgetPack has a few other nice gadgets included
in it also. Weather still working, in fact noticed it said "getting
data" as I write this.

Thanks for your reply and those from others to my OP. I did try
installing several (other than "WeatherCenter") of the Wx gadgets at
that URL you provided but they failed to connect to whatever site was
being used to provide the Wx data. Now, for some unknown reason my
favorite "Russian" Wx gadget that I'd been using for several years,
"WeatherCenter", is getting data again (currently from "The Weather
Network") as of this moning, 1/1/19. For how long, who knows?
