Anyone having problems with Dashboard's weather widget? I'm outside the US right now and not getting any info, nothing but the name of the city and a couple of dashes. When I click on more info, it takes me to a website for US cities.

That's all I've been getting - and I'm in the US... I think they don't have it turned on yet

Ok. Well, at least it's not me.
Also, does anyone know about getting info at the same time on multiple cities?

I had trouble getting the correct city, I kept getting the forecast for a US city of the same name. Eventually I found if I just typed the city name (with no country, state, county whatever after it, just the name) and hit return, it showed me a drop down of possible matches, and the UK version was marked there. I clicked on it, and that did the business for me :standard:

Yep, I'm in Japan. "Tokyo" automatically displays. It took about a half-hour before I realized I had to place the cursor within the "city" box and hit "Return". It'll then located a match: "Tokyo, Japan" and then updated. Pretty much every major city in Japan can be set in this way.

To get multiple cities, click on the plus to the lower-left. Drag another Weather Widget (icon in bottom tray) to the desktop.

FWIW, this is true for all widgets - you can get multiple copies of each which really doesn't make sense for some (e.g iTunes controller) but is helpful for others.
