I'll toss in a highly granular site: Weather Underground (Wunderground):

They have apps for mobile, don't know if anyone is using it as a data 
source for desktop widgets, but there's a good chance of them having a 
crowd-sourced weather station closer to you than Environment Canada's 
site at the YKF Airport.

I'm seeing about 2 dozen weather stations in KW alone!



There's a 10 day prediction, hourly, moon phases, sun rise & set, web 
cams, radar maps on top of OpenStreetMaps, lat, long, and elevation of 
station, wind, ...


I was skeptical that they would have better weather then EnvCan or NOAA, 
but seem to have far, far, *far* more weather stations provided by 
weather geeks.
