I second this. I am digging around in the module right now and am having trouble figuring out how to do this...

Ah, ok, it's actually really easy to manually change this. In the weather.module file, lines 367 & 371, change the php function from gmdate() to date(), and then change the format from 'G:i T' to 'g:i T'.

So the lines should look like this:

367: $text = date('g:i T', $metar['daytime']['sunrise_on']);

and

371: $text = date('g:i T', $metar['daytime']['sunset_on']);

All done. Shows up correctly for me now in local (EST) time.

Great, thanks. I'll have a look at this.
Does this "hack" make use of drupals timezone setting? Or is it just using the server's local timezone? (I'm not so familiar with the drupal and the weather module code.)
