Problems in version 5.5 and 5.5a

Discontinued Software Weather Watcher - Support

Hello, I noticed a problem in version 5.5, The problem still exists, after I updated to 5.5a.

Now on Friday, I download the current forecast, for friday (ofcource), but the hourly forecast shows saturday.

The time is correct, but the day (name) is wrong.

Hi,

I’ve noticed the same problem in both versions.

This seems to be a problem in the way date-time is set on your computer. Being Dutch I’ve set my Windows-COuntry settings to Dutch which results in a.o. date format 11-9-2004 (but also uses default the Euro-symbol ? insteed of the $, decimal comma is a ‘.’’ etc.).

When I change the country-setting to English, the date format changes to 9/11/2004 and WW shows proper date[:)]

Obviously WW handles different date formats incorrectly.[V]

According to WW today (Saturday, 11 september) is a Tuesday.
The explanation is that 11-9 in Europe is the eleventh day of the 9th month. I the US 11-9 is 9 november, which indeed is a Tuesday. [:D][:D]

Just downloaded a fix solving a ‘1 day shift’ problem (date 9/10) but it just got worse. According to WW it is now Wednesday.
