I guess at this point, I'll wait to see if Tateu has a chance to see my post. I imagine it would be very easy to change the settings so that the desktop icon and forecast refresh rates can both be requested more frequently - as often as every 5 minutes (or maybe even every minute). I'd really like that.

Not going to happen. Weather.com only updates Current Conditions once every hour so even if I set BBWeather to grab data every 5 minutes, it would end up grabbing the same data over and over. And I believe the forecasts are only updated every couple of hours...or more. The only real situation where I think a shorter update interval would be beneficial is if you were on the move and getting weather based on GPS. I'm still not going to change it, though.
