This is a perfect widget which shows the weather in my location in England. All the features are as described by the developer and more - humidity, visibility, pressure and time of observation.

Beats Apple's offering hands-down. Apple's widget misidentified Dublin as being in the US somewhere, failing to read my localisation data.
The Beeb's widget allows me to chose between Dublin and Dublin Airport for weather.
Most important, it's right. If a widget gets the current weather wrong, what hope has it of getting the forecast right?
Clunk. The Apple weather widget just hit the bin.

... when the previous version showed the current forecast it also showed the update time in the tooltips. I remember that sometimes it wasn't updated for hours and in a few instances even for a whole day. Therefore, the current forecast without indication of when it was updated is simply useless. I hope the developer will address this and make it a five star widget again.
I have noticed the BBC have recently changed the layout of their local weather page. I don't know if this has caused the current local temperature to disappear on the widget but I hope the developer can fix this.
