Newbie post: I know that the latest update was supposed to solve this problem and it did for me...but the problem came back again...anyone else having the issue?

My component is here: http://joomla.lewistown.k12.mt.us/index.php?option=com_zweather&Itemid=192

I check the station code (KLWT)...nothing changed there...other ideas?

Thanks, Pat

OK...I figued this out...but didn't fix it! The current observation from the NWS hasn't been updated since dec 11th as of this writing...I finally clued in when I looked at http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?site=tfx&smap=1&textField1=47.0625&textField2=-109.4275 and noticed that the temparute didn't closely reflect reality!

Looks like it is working now? At least the date is correct on the site. If not, did you verify you are using the correct lat/long values?

The NWS site did finally catch up, but my observations were still saying they were more than eight hours old...the problem then was, the time was wrong on the server. A few weeks ago we converted this ubuntu / joomla install from physical to a VM, but no one ever checked the clock on the new install...once the time on the server was set, now all is well...hopefully these posts will help someone else in the future! Really like this Joomla mod! Thanks, Pat
