The problem with that Boofo is that the time the raw data is collected is not when the data was updated - in other words, could be 2 hours old when it is collected from the MSNBC server by vbWeather.

If you go to the MSNBC server mentioned near the beginning of this site you'll see no matter what country/city you select, the time remains constantly on the ET timezone - in my humble opinion it should change to whichever city you select since, even if you are going on holiday and checking the weather, it's still nice to know what time it is there!

I'm fairly new to PHP coding but I will have a look at converting the time string retrieved back to a time format for correct display.

Chris.

Yes, I read all of that. What I meant was, is there a way you can parse the time after you collect the raw data (instead of just echoing it) to match that of the site so everything stays in a site standard format.
