in reply to I'm confused... using Geo::Weather

Well, that means that $current is -4. Which is probably an error indication of some sort from get_weather(). It's a bit peculiar to have a function return either a HASH ref or a negative number, though (I'd wonder about the sanity of the writer of Geo::Weather if that were the case).

    Thank you. As it happens, you are right to wonder...
    I'm still not sure exactly what was going on, but at least once the problem was when I requested get_weather('NY','New York');
    Apparently it really wants it in the format ('New York','NY') and instead of returning the ERROR_IN_QUERY message, it returned the ERROR_NOT_FOUND error code... all of the errors are negative numbers...

    Thanks again,
    Benjamin
