below zero weather
Posted: Dec 19, 2007 7:45 PM
 

I live in Alaska. The temps here have all been below zero F or more than -18C but the weather reported on the iphone never goes below zeroF. right now it is -13F and going to Yahoo says this but the iphone shows 0F. Is this a software flaw. I don't see any settings I can change.

is the iphone supposed to have some kind of built in sensor? I would think whatever it gets is going to be from the internet and here in Alaska thats not always right. This morning my dashboard widget said it was -1 in Homer but really it was about 7 so go figure. You must have just gotten your phone, what do you think so far?

This isn't apple's error. The error is coming from Yahoo's web service.

Hey folks,
I'm in Anchorage too, but I thought I remembered seeing below zero temps listed this past week using the weather button. I thought I got at least a -3. But maybe that was using safari and weather underground. I wish I could remember better but have to say I'm happy to have it in the twenties again and not be able to test for the below zero bug.
