Description
"Do I need an Umbrella?"
A Rainmeter weather skin (version 2.0)Enter your ZIP code, and the skin will tell you if you need to carry an umbrella. For those who want a bare essentials forecast. No code magic here; this skin just parses the info from the excellent website doineedanumbrellaDOTcom: [link]
US ONLY
Sorry, the website works with US ZIP codes only.
Instructions:
Right-click on the skin and use the context menu entries to switch between light and dark versions, and between left and right orientations.
Click the location text to enter your ZIP code. (You can also try city names like on the website, but ZIP codes seem more sure-fire.)
Mouseover "YES" or "NO" to see a tooltip with some additional weather information.
If for any reason the context menu options, clicking the location, etc. are not working, all those options can be changed manually in the [Variables] section of the skin file

Is there a way to configure this skin to show/hide another skin based on the yes/no value? I'm pretty new to this and I would like to configure the skin to show a rain skin when the rain value is "yes"
