Does anyone know how to change the weather city that shows up in the calendar?

First, let me just say sorry for the length, but I think this will help a lot of people if we figure it out, and although it looks long, it is a real easy read. If you are extremely HTC Pro savvy, you can probably just skip to the end and answer the questions right away.

You guys I'm sure know that when you click on a specific day in the calendar, it will give you that day’s weather forecast. Not for every single day in the month, but it gives you the current day plus the next few. My problem is that I don't know how to change which city it shows.

Here is a little background that I think you'll need to know to help solve this, since my weather is a custom city.
-My city was not one of the default cities in the list your phone initially comes with. So I did the frequently used custom tweak to add any city you want.
-So my weather tab works just fine with my city in it now.
-Also, keep in mind that I do NOT have Orlando listed as one of the cities I want to get weather updates on in my weather tab. So I just don't get what the tie is that the phone is making between Orlando and me.
-Originally, the closest city to me from the default list was Orlando Fl. This is important to know because this is the city that the phone has in the calendar.
-My guess as to why the phone lists Orlando in the calendar is because that is the closest city to me. But this would be assuming that the phone itself is determining my location by GPS, taking that location and matching it up with the closest city from the original list, and then using that one. Even though the custom tweak to add your city to the weather tab actually adds your city into the list, so you would think that the phone would recognize this when it is trying to pick a city from the list to put in the calendar, since technically my city is now in that list. So IDK.

So here are my questions:
1.) Why did the phone pick Orlando if I don't have Orlando as a selection in ANY part of the phone?
2.) And of course, how the hell do I change it? I'm really worried that this may require an extensive tweak similar to the one required to add custom cities to the weather tab. I'm hoping there is a setting I can just change, or maybe a regedit that will fix this. Hopefully since I've already done the work to have my city as part of the actual "list" of weather cities, there is a way to just pick from that list for the city you want to show up on your calendar.

Thank you so much guys. You have no idea how much I appreciate all the help I have received from this forum. I'm so damn OCD, and being able to make things exactly how I want them keeps me sane. lol

I used the "Search this forum" option, typed in weather, and found this...

I have a Sprint TP2 and I don't think I have Weather in the Calendar... It's just a gray background and none of the menus seem to have any weather options.

go to your clock settings then select your city there. it has to be added to the weather tab 1st. then go to clock settings, select your city ( it will be there because you added it on the weather tab), then go to the current day on the calendar and you should see the weather for that day.

I have a Spring Touch Pro 2 and I have tried the suggestions in this post and my calendar in Day view still shows Seattle weather and I live in San Diego. My clock settings do not have San Diego (only Pacific) nor do they have Seattle to choose from.
I'm also wondering if there is a way to have the Day view show up first in TouchFlo 3d rather than the Month.

Thanks for any help.
