OMWeather widget--why is it sojmetimes i see hi/low temp, sometimes i see just 1 temperature (i assume current temp?)
 
ok, this might be a dumb question, but why is it sometimes i see 2 temps (a high/low temp) on the OMWeather widget, and sometimes, i only see 1 (which looks like the current temp?)?

I think that means the weather needs to be updated. Try click the widget and updating the weather manually and see if that helps.

i think in the evening you only see one, the low, since the high has passed. that's just a guess though.

When I have internet access, I see one temperature, which seems to be the current outside temperature.

When it has been a while since I last had internet access, I see two temperatures, which look like the predicted high and low temperatures for the date.

I have also seen this and it will show two temps when it has been a long time since the last update and I also guess that the two temps are estimated high and low.

I have also noticed a problem that the program doesn´t respond well too a switch on the internet connection. When I change from wifi too 3g or vice versa I have too manually update one time otherwise the autoupdate doesn´t function.

... the two temps are daytime and nightime ... you only see the nighttime temp once it's evening, as the other has passed ... presumably daytime is the high, and nighttime is the low, since that's how it usually works ...

I checked a device running OMWeather on maemo 4. When there is only one temerature, it is prefaced with "Now:". This only happens when there is internet access. The two temperatures are the predicted high and low. These are shown when internet access has been lost.

It seems very likely that it is the same for OMWeather on maemo 5 on the n900, except that the "Now:" has been omitted.
