Cumulus is a free, open source and elegant weather widget for Ubuntu, based on Stormcloud, It was formerly known as 'Typhoon', it stays on the desktop just like conky.

It can be setup to show in all Workspaces, we will show you below how to setup.

Install Flair conky in Debian/Ubuntu/Linux Mint/Any other Linux distribution

Conky is a free, light-weight system monitor for X, that displays any information on your desktop. Conky is licensed under the GPL and runs on Linux and BSD. Conky can display this info either as text, or using simple progress bars and graph widgets, with different fonts and colours. Conky is able to monitor many system variables including CPU, memory, swap, disk space, temperature, top, upload, download, system messages, and much more. It is extremely configurable, however, the configuration can be a little hard to understand. Conky is a fork of torsmo.
You can check previously shared conky versions for Linux desktop. Flair conky offers you two versions dark and light, you can choose whatever suites your desktop wallpaper. I made installation easy as much as I could for everybody, installation script is semi-automated which means you don't need to bother with installation instead you just need to choose some options (interactively) from setup, I hope no one will get any problem with it. It can work for all Linux desktops environments like (Gnome Shell, Unity, Cinnamon, Gnome Classic, XFCE, Mate, and others). This conky shows Date/Time, CPU and Memory info, acpi temp, Internet upload/download speed and shows total data transfer. I dropped PPA support for conky because many user reported problems, so as usual I picked up only wget script installation method because it can work with most of the Linux distributions without any problem and interactive semi-automatic setup makes stuff easy.

You can check previously shared conky versions for Linux desktop. Neon conky is available in three different colors (Blue, Red, Yellow). I wrote a script to automate whole installation process for this conky, so everybody can easily install it or remove it from system using uninstall script. During installation setup will ask you which color you want and after that conky will be installed in your system and conky related wallpaper will be added to (~/Pictures) location, after installation change your wallpaper to conky related for best results, I hope no one will get any problem with installation. It is tested on most of Linux desktops environments: Gnome Shell, Unity, Cinnamon, Gnome Classic, Mate and hopefully will work on others too. This conky displays Date/Time, CPU, Memory, and Internet upload/download speed.

Black background in conky widgets are known issue now a days, so I come up with some solutions to fix these issues. You may install the conky you love but get black shadow with conky, it is because of Compiz window decoration in Unity and other desktops who uses compiz. If you are in any other desktop and getting same shadow so there is another solution is to change conky mode within the conky script.
