* If for some reason your widget is not being displayed, view source on the page
and search for ‘AWESOME WEATHER ERROR:’. This will give you some information
about what happened.

* In the event of receiving an error from the Weather source, instead of just clearing
your display I would like to see you seriously consider preserving the previous
display and adding something like “DELAYED” in the display. Just clearing the
display is VERY confusing to users—and to developers as well!

* There has also been a filter available to hook into and display whatever you
want when there is an error:
* ```
function hg_awesome_weather_error( ) {
return "Weather Data Coming Soon";
}
add_filter( 'awesome_weather_error', 'hg_awesome_weather_error' );
```
* I think hiding the widget on error is probably the most user friendly solution
unless you are a weather website, in which case I would advise you to use a different
more robust weather widget. The weather widget is probably not the focus of the
page and if it happens to not show one time, most users will probably not notice.
