Hey all,
Sorry for abandoning the plugin a few years back. If you were wondering
what happened to me, I ultimately moved to Japan for work, sold my
place, and all my Squeeze hardware went into storage. Without any
hardware, endless parsing updates, and Logitech dropping support I lost
my drive.

Attached is 5.9.15b2. I've made many updates to the parsing logic as I
have found some notable differences in some of the content by location
and snow vs. rain.
As part of the snow vs. rain changes you'll likely need to update the

Are you saying the latest version causes it to crash, or you've had

probably has a larger hit on resources on yo

It's funny, with the significant amount of new code introduced in 5.9.0
