I've run into a weird bug; almost random temperatures being displayed
in my ForecastFox addon. When I first add it and change the default
ZIP code (I remove New York, NY), the temp displays correctly. Within
5 minutes, an incorrect temperature is shown in the icon and on the
expanded window when I click it. If I click through to the
AccuWeather page, the correct temp and weather information is
displayed. The upcoming daily forecasts don't match between the app
and the Accuweather page either.

I've confirmed that the correct date and time are displayed, chosen
the location by city and state name as well as by ZIP code; the
correct weather map is there, so it doesn't seem to be an issue with
those. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app many times, and
always the same thing: correct for a few minutes, then switches to
some weird info that's not for my area. Any ideas?

What zip code are you using? I can try to reproduce on my end.

I wonder if somebody still has New York listed as a location and turned on rotate locations?

I should have thought about that when I first read that email.

I have also seen weird temperature displays. I am in Canada so I have set it to display temperatures in °C, but one day the temperature it displayed looked like it was in °F.

What’s weird was that when I went to the settings to check if the options were messed up, I found that it was still set to display temperatures in °C.

60304. I don't know if it helps,but here's a capture of what the
Forecastfox addon says vs. the actual Accuweather data I get when I
click on the addon.
