Weather widget shows wrong info

Sometimes when I boot my machine the weather widget shows wrong information about weather even if my machine is already connected to internet and the clock is set correctly, and I even checked the weather info provider and their website is working.

I have the same experience, it starts out very accurate but as time goes on the temperature is wildly wrong.  Currently the local news is reporting 28F, but the widget is reporting 49.9F.  Weirdly, it is only the temp that is wrong - humidity, dewpoint and wind are correct.

Anyone still experiencing this in Plasma 6?
