I suspect in my case it is going to the NOAA regional office, which
for us is Chicago, but they also issue reports for Kankakee, Poniac
and Watseeka. Even though we are physically as close to Lincon which
is the zone south of us, and our weather here it tipically closer to
their's down there, but being Illinois, there's no guarantee anyway
except that it will change in 15 minutes.
No weather 1000 miles away wouldn't be good at all especially since
that's probably to your east, which means they are getting what you
got days before. Nothing like looking back into the past huh?
What's interesting though, is that my wife was using some weather
download thing back when we were using Panther and I think before,
and it would give the weather and temps for where we live, but I'm
not sure what service it ws using. I also don't remember if she was
having it delivered on her desktop or as part of her yahoo when she
would go online. I am just remembering this as I'm typing, and will
ask her about it when she gets home from work. So there may be a
temporary solution that we can do till we figure what's going on with
the widgits.

Is that your closest city for which you can get weather, or was
