    Lately I don't even see random results - just a numberless "ºF" and a constant severe weather banner. Once upon a time this was my preferred weather widget and I've kept it around in case there was just a momentary glitch (granted, a very, very, very long moment), but it looks like it's finally time to give up and drop it for NOAA or AccuWeather.

    I too am getting random cities now. Looks like this app is not working anymore.

    This used to work fine, but the last month or two, it has been generating temperatures from random cities (although showing my zipcode). At first it was kind of funny, but now it is just frustrating seeing the temperature from Texas or California or wherever and knowing it is much colder at my house.

    I have many instances of this widget (added and customisd a few years ago) that are working fine and showing me the weather for Sydney, Australia. However, I tried to include this widget in a new channel, and have found that it no longer accepts a location in the format "City, Country". It will only display a location if a zipcode is entered. I do not have a zipcode to enter, but I would really like this widget in my new channel. It is one of the best weather widgets.

    I used to love this app. I used it 24/7 as a constant weather station. A few months ago, it just stopped working. It is on, the background is there, city is there but no weather information. There is just a big "f" for the temp and no wind speed.

    For customers experiencing issues with your zip codes and displaying any data, we have noted the issue(s) and will be forwarding them to the developer. Hopefully we will see this resolved soon. -chumby support

    This widget used to work fine configured for 60516, but in the last month it stopped working, which seems to match some other reports here. I forget which weatherbug site we used to get (it may have been Herrick Middle School, but that isn't on any list of Weatherbug sites I can find now, maybe the weather station there got turned off?). I can configure the Chumby widget for 60515 and it finds Hinsdale Middle School (which is what I get when I put 60516 into the main weatherbug.com website), but for some reason the Chumby widget is not finding that, it just gives no data.

    @joltdude - what zip code are you inputting? I have tested and verified that this app is working correctly. - chumby support

    I havent seen any useful data from this app in some time.. Did get it to set my zipcode (or i think it did).. No temp, no wind direction, and a red alert banner all the time...

    It works just fine for me...perhaps the coding was finally corrected.

    App does not work I find it hard to believe Weather Bug has any thing to do with this app. I guess it is good if everyone in the world lived in Germantown Still version 1 from 2007 ??????

    Useless apps cannot set to the right location. M here in California it keeps showing different state. Fix it.

    I used IE to install this app and entered the zipcode as directed, but the only weather data was for Germantown, MD. Any reason why it refuses to customise?

  • lousonian

    I cant change the location. I want my own location. Pls tell what to do to change my location. Email @ [email protected]. Thanks.

    Any way to display the ACTUAL weather alert in the moving red banner? Better selection of weather station would be nice too

    Any way to get percipitation added?

    Is there anyway to control which "station" to get weather data from in this widget. Reason: In downtown Dallas area the widget defaults to a Baptist School that seems to be reporting temperatures 5-7 degrees above other stations in the area. Otherwise this type of weather reporting is a great idea for a widget and the widget works well on my chumby.

    Weird...plugging in my zipcode 94131 I get Germantown, MD, and "San Francisco, USA" isn't found.
