Bug Description

xfce4-weather-plugin:
  Installed: 0.8.3-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.8.3-0ubuntu1

it most certainly does not feel like 45° F outside (see attached screen shot)

this is probably a issue with the data feed the applet uses, but i cant find a weather section on that site, you may want to consider using google or weatherunderground for weather data

also the old weather info is not disappearing in the weather report
the morning info is still present in the report even though it is evening now, not sure if that is a bug or a feature, but it definitely changed since the 0.8.1-0ubuntu1 quantal version

currently not a issue
this was probably just a server side issue
