Local weather has stayed the same for 2 weeks

My local weather status, (Kempton Park, South Africa) has never changed for the last 2 weeks. It refuses to update. The temperature has remained at 22c although it is currently 8c.

Hi Ian,

991415; Kempton Park/Gauteng/South Africa is using METAR station FAJS.
FAJS has been renamed to FAOR.

On your Desktop, go to Location > Properties.
Replace FAJS with FAOR.

You can change the METAR station for your widget using 'current_weather_icao'.

That worked, thank you.
I knew from FSX that the ICAO had changed but did not realise that the Metar used would need to be changed as well.
