I had a couple people make me aware that occasionally the icon wouldn’t display in the widget. Through some digging I found out that NOAA doesn’t have an icon for every weather condition they may report. For example, in my area I lost the icon when the weather conditions were “Snow Freezing Fog and Windy”. If you check the NOAA website here you won’t be able to find an icon for those exact weather conditions. There answer for that is to omit the icon information from the XML weather file. I added a default diggy auto insurance icon if there wasn’t any specified in the weather file.
