      Hello everyone! I just wanted to apologize for the mishap with the weather app this week. We got an api key for OpenWeatherMap for UBports and I published an update to the Weather app without realizing there should also be a Weather Channel api key. I recently pushed an update that removes the Weather Channel option and also removes the issues users were facing by moving them to the OpenWeatherMap provider. Unfortunately we won't be reactivating the Weather Channel/Weather Underground data provider since it seems they are shutting down their api in favor of a business focused IBM provider and they are no longer offering free api access and their data seems to have restrictions for some countries. For now we will keep with just OpenWeatherMap but we will look into other options like DarkSky, etc.
