The actual temperature in my city (San Nicolas de los Garza, Nuevo Leon, Mexico) is wrong at this moment we are at 8 °C but it shows 20°C and in the 12pm forecast is okay it is at 8°C.

This is almost certainly an error with the data from OWM, which unfortunately is out of our hands.

I realise this is probably not the answer you want to hear, I tend to use three forecasts, between them I get a better idea of what might happen.

I'll take a guess there's a problem with the weather station, the default station I use generally shows a temperature too high by ~5 degrees, also it is sheltered to the south so sometimes the wind speed is a bit low.

There's a widget (Different Weather?) on the OWM site for reporting weather which is different from the forecast.
