Boy, you're making me dig around in my memory of the OSX install process, which I had the store person do because, foolish, foolish man that I was, I didn't figure that Apple would have been progressive enough to allow for a talking install of their operating system—something which, incidentally, I find quite nice, my earlier comments about VoiceOver 0.7 notwithstanding. Anyway, I think it asks your city and suchlike when you install, and the weather widget derives information there. Alternately, it may have been your zip code as, looking at the JavaScript source for the widget, it appears to query AccuWeather, I think it is, for data based on your zip code.

As per the dock, I was looking to do things like move Xcode or other such things to the Dock, which I've only been able to do through vast amounts of trial and error.

Or to put it another way, is there a way we can add icons to the dock without having to rely on someone whose eyes actually work, or is this like trying to set the preferences on dashboard widgets? My weather widget is still giving me data on Portland, Maine.
