The third-party service we use requires a valid latitude and longitude to return the weather.
If you persistently recieve errors or the latitude/longitude fields never update, please contact us and we'll add your zip to our list.
You can also enter the latitude and longitude manually, as long as the every field (zip, latitude, and longitude) is filled in, the data won't automatically update.
If you go to Google: http://google.com/maps/search/ZIPCODE the resulting page will have the coordintes listed in the URL.
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Edmond,+OK+73034/@35.7085641,-97.4165053,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x87b18ab745b73815:0x2fe22ba278209630!8m2!3d35.7085641!4d-97.4165053
The first number is the latitude and the second is the longitude.
- Aren't there supposed to be icons?
-
Yes! There are!
The third-party service we were using for years finally stopped providing weather data for free, so we've switched to another service. Unfortunately, the icons we were using were coming directly from that third-party service, so even though we switched over to new data, the icons didn't come with it.
Contact us and we'll add in the appropriate styles.
