This issue continues into V6.011. If the option "Set tray icon to Italic until first weather update" is active, WWL will open italic, then change to normal for about 2 seconds and revert back to italic. Manually retrieving the weather will stop this behavior; however, it may take 3-4 attempts to do so.

For example, on this morning's system startup, the temp first displayed italic 32 degrees....then promptly switched to normal 38 degrees...and 1-2 seconds later changed to italic 38 degrees. Two manual retrieve weather attempts converted it back to normal 38 degrees. I've never seen it convert back to italic once this initial flurry ends.

The pic below shows my current settings...which does not create the issue because the option "Set tray icon to Italic until first weather update" is unchecked.

The "Set tray icon to Italic when update attempt fails" setting just does that. Are you certain that a lot of your weather retrieval attempts are not failing?

I'm not seeing any errors or failure messages. The WWL log is not showing any messages. I've disabled my firewall...as a check...and the problem still occurs.

I have, however, seen it switch mysteriously to another weather station...from the one in Charleston, WV to the one in Huntington, WV.

You won't see an error message when the weather auto updates. The time stamps at the bottom of the main Weather Watcher Live window will not change though.

That will happen if your selected weather station is not available. WeatherBug's system automatically jumps to the closest available weather station until your weather station is available again.

Okay, it looks like everything is working in WWL as it should....must be a random connect issue on my end.

Thanks for your assistance. :thumbright:
