Hi Jan, Pasha, Reinhart, and Fred,

The geoid appears to be one digit off.

I checked foreca.com for Bree, Belgium and they are using

2801093 ; Bree / Belgium

Hope this helps.

Marty

Yes it does - thank you very much (especially for foreca.com as an alternative source to find out the geonames-id)!

I'm sorry the problem with Bree is quite complex.
The town of Bree is not available on yr.no, only Administrative division.
And this case is not supported in YoWindow.
I need to dig into the code and try to find a way to handle this case.
Right now there is no time for this.
Guys please, remind me in a month, I will do my best to solve this.

Jan,

In the meantime may I suggest you ask for 2797632; Gerdingen/Belgium to be added?
Not what you've asked for of course, but maybe sufficient for the time being.
I guess both Bree and Gerdingen wil take their forecast (from NWS) from the airport Kleine-Brogel anyhow.
And after checking just now on yr.no, the actual weather for both were exactly the same, as were the forecast untill next Sunday.
This might not always be the case of course.

Just a thought.

Goodluck,
Fred
