It doesn't work. At all. Icon says err.

Temperatures more accurate than all other apps I tried. Though, it would help if the font could be changed to black on green background. It is hard to see the white numbers on green background.

This was working great before but now it seems to be based on the location of my ISP's connection to the Internet. I'm in South Florida and the temp is over 80 F but the Icon says it is 46 F. Too bad we can't just input a Zip Code or City/St Combo.
