Jeff, You're not getting added to the special thanks list with that one.

Okay folks, I've gathered more data.  The few notable things are:
1. MythWeb-Weather (latest SVN) and MSNBC were accurate and in perfect
agreement.
2. (Sunday Night)Monday Morning at 12:04am MythWeather (accurately) said
"Today"
3. Monday at 6:53am MythWeather (incorrectly) said "Tomorrow (Tuesday)"
4. Monday at 8:24am MythWeather (incorrectly) said "Tomorrow (Tuesday)"
5. Two minutes later (8:26am) the data from the very same load in #4
corrected itself to say "Today"
6. The MythWeather data always seems to be correct, but the labeling is
sometimes incorrect.  I think this was the case with MythWeb-Weather also.

I want to get a few people's take on this.  In the mean time I will try
letting the data cycle any morning that it is labeled incorrectly.
Although, I think I usually do this.  The difference is that I usually check
the weather at 6-7am for my wife.  I try to leave for work by 7:30am.  I
tend to be later on days like today when I am working on Myth.

I have attached a log of the data I recorded.  It is as accurate as I could
be without my wife making me sleep on the couch.

tod in place of tom.

HERE IS WHERE IT GETS CRAZY!!!!
I loaded MythWeather at 8:24am
and left it open for 2 minutes
while I was writing down data.
I'm pretty sure it said tomorrow
(because when it says tomorrow,
it explictly says Tuesday)
but when it cycled through a few
times it said today.  This is
even without an exit and reload!
Is this possible?

The MSN javascript data feeds that I captured where too long and caused this
message to get moderator flagged.  I do have them though if anyone is
interested.
