Hi, man. I think I found a timezone bug in weather component.
I'm in china, and today is saturday in my place though today is friday in USA.
So in weather 5 days list, the first day should be sunday but saturday.
Am I right?

Not sure I understood. Does the first day in the five day forecast say 'Saturday' or 'Sunday'? Since it is already Saturday there, the first day forecast is for the NIGHT of the same day (therefore it should say Saturday).

Thank you. I got it.
Nexus can show not only weather forecast but also current condition, so it uses 2 icons on today and uses 1 icon on other day.
This confused me.

That's right. The forecast for the current day are the conditions at the night of that same day (which is why the first forecast icon always displays a moon and never the sun).

Jorge,
Now, I'm confused. I don't see a moon or a Sun, as shown below:

Are you seeing something different?

Sorry, I meant a moon when there are no weather conditions like rain, fog, etc... eg; if the weather was clear or simply cloudy, you would see a moon, not a sun.

Ah, switch the weather icon style to Style 2 (right click weather module icon -> Style -> Style 2) - I'm pretty sure you'll like that set of weather icons a lot more.

How about naming the first icon "Tonight" ? :lol:
