    WeatherBug Temperature Error

    After some trial and tribulations I managed to get it working. One problem I came across is the temperature I had first notice I had a temperature of -102 deg F (ZIP 01701) clearly impossible but temperatures at other zip codes could also be ridiculous, so I started comparing them with WeatherBug’s own web site they never agreed and were out by at least 5 deg but normally about 20 deg or more. The other readings for wind and pressure were in agreement.
    This was on top of the other problem of sites not responding as discussed in the other thread. On playing about with the program I found they were responding sending back the correct name etc(except temp.) but the station ZIP was 99999 .
    As I live in the U.K. I have had to learn about ZIP  codes and find some besides other things.
    What WeatherBug must think as I have been making queries all over the US. But then again they think Scotland and Wales are not part of the UK.
