 * Most of the time this is an issue with OpenWeatherMap and their API. It usually
   comes back around. If you want to clear the cache to see if that helps you can
   follow the steps on this page: [https://halgatewood.com/docs/plugins/awesome-weather-widget/clearing-weather-cache](https://halgatewood.com/docs/plugins/awesome-weather-widget/clearing-weather-cache)
 * Also make sure you have an API Key added: [https://halgatewood.com/docs/plugins/awesome-weather-widget/register-for-an-openweathermap-api-key-appid](https://halgatewood.com/docs/plugins/awesome-weather-widget/register-for-an-openweathermap-api-key-appid)
