Same here, I just noticed it not updating this morning. Anyone found a workaround?

2 stock Droids in Baltimore having server errors too. This sucks worse than the Orioles! Looking forward to this app coming back online.

I just asked a VZW tech friend of mine if there were any known outages with the news/weather widget. His response was we don't support apps, so we don't do alerts for them.

Hopefully the issue works itself out soon.

Good to know that I'm not the only one. *Edit* I called Motorola Droid support this morning and they don't know what's going on either.

I just checked Googles Apps Status Dashboard and they say no problems. Oh well, I don't even have it on my Droid. Good luck guys.

I usually use the Weather Channel one, but it has been bugging out on me by always sending notifications; whether I want them or not. Here in Colorado, that's really annoying as we have a bit of weather (high wind notice? seriously? I already know I live in Colorado; don't make noise at 3am telling me it'll be windy).

I tried the "stock" one and got the same error as everyone else. Obnoxious.

I'm in Denver CO, running BB v 0.2.1 and Chevy's 1.25 kernel and mine's broken too.

I got Weather and Toggle Widgets with the forecast add on.Was still using the other for more detail though.
I've been thinking of rooting but am redoing my PC right now.also I figured at this point I'd wait for the Froyo final rooted roms. There are a lot of apps I wouldn't mind getting rid of, though-- including this one if it doesn't start working.

Just checked and mine thinks it is still Wednesday. I do a manual refresh and it says loading but nothing changes. Maybe is really is Wednesday. It is smarter than me.
