Weather temperature incorrect in two cities

Hello,

I am using your HOT Weather module for Joomla 2.5, the best weather module of the bunch (I have tried them all).

However, it is providing the wrong temperature, about 25 degrees lower than the correct temperature. This happens for two different cities (Canton OH and Oklahoma City OK). The temperatures on Weather.com and Yahoo! Weather is accurate, but not from WeatherLet.com. This happens whether I use zip codes or the WeatherLet city code.

I noticed on the WeatherLet.com temperature page for any city, it shows "11/16/11 1:51 PM EST" Does this mean that I am looking at the weather from November 2011?

Any idea what is causing this? I really like your module and would like to use it. I know that the fault is with WeatherLet.com, but maybe you can help?

Thanks for any help that you can provide,
Tom Hammond

Are you sure your zip code is correct? Values are collected from their site weatherlet.com/

Yes, I used both the correct zip codes and the city codes as defined by WeatherNet.com. When I put this information into the WeatherLet.com main web page, it shows "Canton, Ohio" as expected. However, it shows roughly 25 degrees lower than the same city in Weather.com and Yahoo! Weather. I tried "Canton OH", the zip code, or USOH0156 in WeatherLet.com, but all show the correct city but the incorrect temperature. Any ideas what is causing this? I sure would like to use this module!

The temperature can be shown in both Celsius (C) and Fahrenheit (F) degrees. Are you sure that you set it to the correct temperature scale?

Yes, I tried both Fahrenheit and Celcius.

Can you look at the temperature for "Canton, OH" at the following websites:

www.weatherlet.com
www.weather.com
weather.yahoo.com

You will find that weather.com and Yahoo! Weather has the temperature for this city within a degree or two, but the WeatherLet website has the weather about 25 degrees lower!

Any help is surely appreciated.
