Weather gadget trouble (again)
Well it appears my town no longer exists! If I enter 'Swindon' in the
search, my town is shown on the list (Swindon, England, UK), but selecting
it says 'location not found'. Perhaps we've disappeared into a black hole
somewhere! This problem only occurs on the Farenheit display - changing to
Celsius shows 3C with raindrops (exactly the same graphic for the last two
weeks).


Very strange!

Hmm works here showing 11° and mostly cloudy. Have you tried adding an
additional weather gadget and setting that up?

a web service somewhere so its likely that thats where the problem is
