The weather module doesn't refresh automatically. It almost appears that it is caching the data, however caching is turned off. If I go to the block, update and and save it, the weather module then updates to the current data. Any thoughts? Anyone else finding an error with this too?

Thanks,

Mike

Well... #660364: It's daytime but module thinks it's night

especially please take a look at my last comment there and see if the weather block is updated if you refresh the page 2-3 times.

For anyone else having this problem, chances are you need to run cron. When the site becomes live, you should set cron to run at a specified time interval, as cron is not only what queries the Yahoo weather api for an update, it also checks for module updates etc. You can also set cron to run when the site is in development, but most people prefer to run cron manually when in dev :P

Meanwhile, you can run cron manually by clicking the link on admin/reports/status or by going straight to admin/reports/status/run-cron

For more information on configuring cron, check this page out: http://drupal.org/cron
