Weather docklet - days mixed up in UK

Sunday, October 7, 2007 by matharu | Discussion: ObjectDock

I'm using 1.90 of StatDock Plus.

I'm in the UK, When mouseovering on the Weather docklet, it is showing weather for:

Today, Tomorrow, Monday, etc.

Unfortunatly, today is Sunday 12:18 BST (or 11:18 GMT). So the Weather docklet thinks that the day after tomorrow is Monday when it should be Tuesday. It does the same thing on other days and I think that later on this evening that the Weather docklet seems to correct it self.

What's up with that? Perhaps some hardcoded hours-offset instead of a relative one? Whatever, it just needs to be fixed.

I've had this problem for quite a while. I suggested to Jeff sometime ago it was to do with time zones. Later this evening (Sunday) it will show Today, Tomorrow, Tuesday...

I am currently tracking some issues in Aussie land. For instance we had a few tickets from Brisbane and we have reproduced some of the errors. I believe this is still just a sever side update. Please stand by.....

Most capital or popular cities seem to be fine. Can anyone give me some examples of some places I don't know so I can track this a bit? Pretty please?

Sheffield, UK - population 650,000

At the moment it's showing Today, Tomorrow, Thursday which is correct (15:56 UK time). Mostly throughout the day it's wrong, until the evening when it corrects itself.

Alright I have that written down and I am showing the same. I will forward that on. Anyone else having consistent troubles with an area? This seems to focus mostly on Western Europe and New Zealand/ Australia.
