NOTE:  Changes made by our weather data provider, along with other issues related to data fetching, require that we make significant updates to the product to ensure that it functions reliably. While we are working on these improvements, we are temporarily disabling the extended forecast to allow basic weather information to display properly. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause as we work to improve World Clock & Weather’s functionality as quickly as possible.
