I think gkrellm is pretty informative. There are about a "bazillion" 
skins for it, and among the data it can provide is weather, if you 
install the plug-in.

It's been a while since I installed the weather plugin, but I believe it 
may be as easy as:

# yum install gkrellm-weather

At any rate, I just installed all that yum could install for gkrellm with:

# yum install gkrellm*

gkrellm's a nice piece of informative eye candy for the desktop!
