Just downloaded this great thing :D and managed to see my sd card data and weather in Moscow and Saint Petersburg, Russia in metric units.

However noticed that current weather significantly differs from weather.com It is -2 for current and -7 for feels like instead of  -1 and -6 on weather.com, humidity is 63% instead of 57%, etc.

Another problem is that it shows uncnown code: 98 or 84 instead of Cloudy, Light Snow, etc in forecasts and if shows other text, it may mismatch to weather.com say Light Snow instead of Flurries or something like that.

May be I'm doing smth wrong?  :(

The app gets the weather information from MSNBC.com, which in part gets the info from weather.com, but it normally gets the data every 2-4 hours, so the information you have may be a couple of hours old.

If you tap the current day, it should give you more info, and at the bottom is the last updated weather time.  Check how behind is.

There's a thread on the new features list about changing the weather source.  I'm not sure how trivial this would be.
