datepicker customize calendar

I'm trying to change the appearance of jQuery's datepicker in the following way: Instead of simply listing the days of the month, I'd like each day within the calendar to also contain some other information (e.g., an icon, or a word). This icon/word will provide the user with additional information regarding that day of the month (for example, "rainy").
I've looked all through SO - I haven't been able to find a way to do this so far. Does anyone have any idea how/if this can be done?

Thank you very much!

jQuery UI widgets can be extended using Widget factory. Here is a nice intro from jQuery.

You could overwrite beforeShowDay method and add a custom css class (e.g. rain) based on some condition. If that's not gonna work, you could go deeper and extend both beforeShow and changeMonth methods.
