Weather server issues on weather forecast applications

Dear users.

We are facing weather server related issues. The 'weather not updating' problem that started recently is caused by a weather server problem, not by your Internet connection (as the application reports). We are trying to issue a temporary fix to the problem and we have already started working hard on implementing a different weather server.

Like we said in email replies, our intention is to include more than one weather server choices. This will take some time but we will do it eventually. What is important for now is to fix the problem a.s.a.p.

If you know any other users of our applications please inform them about this.

Thank you for the support!
