If you click on the clock you can choose whatever city you want to appear (assuming the city is listed or you have it added with a weather .cab). So you would want to add your city from the main home tab (by clicking on the clock) and deselecting the "My Location" which incorrectly thinks you are in a different time zone. At least then you will have the correct time zone, city, and associated weather.

I have a Sprint Air Rave 3G hotspot which will cause "My Location" to show up incorrectly as well because it uses the data center location (because it connects via internet, not towers). For this reason, I added my specific city to the main Home Tab and deselected "My Location"

Regarding the behavior of weather, I've noticed that the weather status on the Home Tab (under clock) never updates itself until you manually view the Dedicated Weather Tab and it updates itself. Then, the weather on the Home Tab also updates. I'm assuming this is normal behavior (but I cant remember?). It would be nice if the weather on the home tab updated itself at the interval you specified regardless of if you manually flip over to the weather tab or not. Isnt that the whole point of placing it on the main page, so you can see current conditions without flipping to the weather tab? is this normal?
