The Accuweather widget seems to have a time error on it. The analog clock is one hour behind the time on my phone and the digital time just below the analog clock.

Has anyone else experienced this? Fixes? I tried deleting the widget & adding it again, nothing changed. If there is no fix, any weather apps that rock?
 
You're right! Didn't even notice it before I read your post. I can't find any way to change it.
 
I noticed late last night that although the nighttime image was shown, it still registered 97deg from afternoon, when it was actually in the low 80s. I think the widget sucks so I removed it. Probably going to try one of the others mentioned on this forum.
 
I also noticed it last night. I downloaded a clock widget and Weather Bug from the Market to replace.
 
you need to open the widget and there will be a DST icon at the botton right after clicking the menu button. Like me you must be in a DST part of the country. enter the city where you are or if it picked up your location with gps. then click the Set DST and press done. you should be good after that.

Assuming you have DST, you need to open the widget, open the menu, and go to My City list.

In the My City list, open the menu again, and tap the Set DST button. That should fix the issue.
 
Hi, I just fixed it on my Samsung S3.
1) tap on Accuweather page.
2) I guess its the "settings" box appears on top right corner.
3) allow motion senser to update and change settings "allow"
4) shake phone.

problem solved, it also selects the closest weather station.
I have shut the phone down a couple of times at it is still correct, I hope this helps you
