As we are discussing the subject of weather...
Do you get accurate temperature information? I am in Guildford, England and I find the values for the low temperature of the day to be always completely off. To give you an example the low temperature for tomorrow is forecast as 7 degrees while the BBC site reports 16 degrees which sounds definitely more reasonable.
I wonder if the fact that the data is coming from Accuweather in Fahrenheit and then converted to Celsius is playing a part in this...

The BBC weather is always a little optimistic anyway - metcheck and weather.com seem to be more reliable!

But the TF3D tab now tells me there will be 4 degrees in Guildford next Sunday. It's ridiculous!

See my location... I am supposed to be in "the beautiful south" not the North Pole!! :)
