Default Apps using google weather still having problems...?

Hey guys,

I waited a few days to post this to see if the problem would resolve and it has not. I searched here before posting and did not see it, so not trying to post a known problem

I use fancy widget (htc sense like clock and weather) and Beautiful Widgets. The weather has been stuck and is not working on either for a few days now. On the market under the comments for Beautiful widgets there are a ton of people complaining about the weather not working and some comments are saying it is due to google weather and not the app itself. I tend to believe that because fancy widget weather is not working either, while Weatherbug does not use google weather (i think) and its working fine.

I know many people use Beautiful Widgets here, so Im just wondering if Everyone is having the same problem and is it due to Google, not the app, as some have suggested?

If so, do we just wait? If not, is there anything I can do to fix it on my end?

thanks,
Im sure this is known, but did a search and did not come up with anything under Vibrant General or Vibrant Apps and themes Sections

I had the smae problem with Beautiful Widgets so I emailed the developer. Amazingly I got a response by the next day (tuesday) saying just what you said. He also said that he was working on a fix by using a different weather service and that it should only be a couple of days. Mine was stuck on 80 degrees but now its 79. Take that global warming...
