I have both the Weather Widget, and Degrees Down Under running at
present. They are with 0.3 of a degree at the moment, which is pretty
good when you consider the the Weather Widget rounds the temperature
to the closet whole number, therefore DDU says 13.3, and WW says 13.
Also as it is currently 2330hrs (11:30 pm) as I write this, the WW
picture is also displaying correctly!

I have followed the comments regarding the weather widget with
interest as I find it similarly inaccurate. I use "Degrees Down
Under" which has an onscreen temperature display (if you wish) and
a link to the weather bureau and your local area.
All in all I find the Dashboard widgets something I just don't use
at this stage though I see the potential.
Right now the widget shows the wrong forecast for Albany (15C as
against official 17C) and the temperature is given as 16C whereas
in actual fact the weather bureau (Albany Airport) gives 14.8C
close to my own thermometer with 15.6C (I am always marginally
warmer).
By the way it is a beautiful sunny day here right now!
