not displaying the correct weather #145

The weather is plain wrong here. WOEID CAXX0225 is showing -1/6 C with showers. It is sunny and 22C here right now.

What is the weather source for this WOEID? I heard some grumblings about Yahoo Weather having gone through some changes lately. Maybe that's got something to do with it.

It looks like it's a problem on the Yahoo end. If you extract the URL out that retrieves the weather XML data you will see that the lastPubDate is old. For my WOEID the last pub date shows as April 11. It has not updated since then.

So what is the resolution to this problem?

ScottGeiger commented 8 years ago

@brianjmurrell - see issue #134 for a fix.

This is clearly a duplicate of issue #134.
