good morning, here is my rpi setup.
for locale, it has en_GB ( I dont think this matters, but what is the value for USA?)
for timezone, it is already New York.
the rpi and my PC shows the same info when i go to this website : http://dablet.com/tung_quote/
the reason i have the rpi loads that website is because i can change the content as needed remotely. i dont have to visit the person’s house and log into putty locally to make changes.

I had a hard time with openweather as well, what I finally got to work was using the full City,State (No Space) as my location. What helped me was going to the openweather site and typing in different combinations until I found the one that was for my city which according to them there are 6 different city’s in the US with that name.

For Philadelphia what works is Philadelphia,Pennsylvania (Note there is NO SPACE between the city and state)
http://openweathermap.org/city/4560349

unfortunately, it didnt work as seen by the screenshot below. i wonder if it is because the files are hosted on a webserver located in another city. all of Teeuw’s files are located on a bluehost.com server. the autostart file on the rpi tells Chromium to load this website http://dablet.com/tung_quote/

I had that same problem. The time in the top right is the time when the sun “officially” sets at your location.

im not referring to the sunset time. please see my screenshot and message for clarification.

anywho, here is my config file: http://www.dablet.com/tung_quote/js/config.js

location is set as “q: ‘Philadelphia, US’,” is that incorrect? or i must seet to zip code?

im in Philadelphia, PA, USA. time zone is new york city in raspi-config setting.
the time on the left side is correct with current time. however, the weather is still showing current condition from 8 hours ago.
in the screenshot, you can see it is Thursday morning, BUT the weather is showing conditions for 8 hours ago. hence you are also seeing Wednesday’s forecast, which is yesterday.
please help. thanks!
