            also… replace the hash symbols with various numbers… im not posting my exact Lat/Long for obvious reasons…

            make sure ur doing

            lat:
            

            and

            lon:
            

            i had it set to lat & lon(G) which is incorrect. hence why it was 80+miles, way tf over there!

            quote marks or none surronding the numbers doesnt appear to matter, for me at least

              This “issue” is fixed.

              Advised by Sam, I ran these 2 commands to find modified files that differ from a “clean install/default” of MM.

              git status
              git diff
              

              Any that varied… I ran:

              git checkout <dir-tree>/file.extension
              

              Rebuilt my config.js and found that apiBase HAS to be commented out.

              On reflection DO NOT CHANGE ANY FILE aside from “config.js”
              I had 3 causes for this issue.

              • (edit) i had longitude set in config.js to “long:”… it should be “lon:” and the lat/lon do not have to be surrounded by any quote marks.
              • I’d modified other *.js files, that didn’t need to be modified.
              • the “apiBase” argument listed in (MagicMirror Documentation > Modules > Weather Module > Configuration Options) was, in my case, not “REQUIRED”.

              @sdetweil … Sam, publically, I cant thank you enough for your help with this. Sorry for being a n00b, your insight and help was invaluable, and you taught me some stuff, which is great!!
