If you have always found the background of the Galaxy S4 mini's Accuweather widget annoying and taking up a lot of space for your wallpaper, worry no more as xda member SilviuMik has shared his transparent widget.

Now there are two variants of transparent. One can be where the background is completely gone and all you see is the sun, clouds, temperature, time and location over your homescreen's wallpaper. The other variant is to have the background's opacity set to 50% or even a little less which will result in seeing a bit of the widget's background and under it, a dim look of your homescreen's wallpaper.
The only available variant for now is this one which has the background completely transparent.
