Module Description
Open Weather is a module to parse out the weather response from OpenWeather. The main reason we need this module because Google had killed it's weather API, thus rendering the Google Weather module useless. This module is a nice way for users to get weather in their site now.

Troubleshooting As of now, Open weather module only works if you have used right APPID from openweathermap.org otherwise it will show an error an error in dblog (if devel module is enabled). In case the module is not working properly, you may try:
Clear the cache
Reinstall the module after disable and uninstallation.
FAQ Q: Does it work without APPID?
A: NO, you must have APPID from openweathermap.org. I would recommend you download the devel module (https://www.drupal.org/project/devel) and you will able the see the error in dblog only for development purpose.
