Bug description:
When using Weather Underground in the weather applet, I get an odd ( = wrong) mention as (what I assume to be) the dew point.

Example:
Currently the weather applet indicates (on hovering over)
---> Clear 22C (-6C) Brussels
It's the -6C that confuses me and seems... wrong.
Upon inspection of that location (Brussels, Belgium) on the wunderground.com, I get
 22 °C
Clear
Humidity: 	46%
Dew Point: 	10 °C
Wind: 	7 km/h / 2.1 m/s from the NNW
Pressure: 	1023 hPa (Steady)
Visibility: 	-
Elevation: 	58 m
------


If it isn't the dew point, then mentioning it like that in the hover seems confusing and anti-intuitive (to my intuition anyway).
If it is the dew point, then it's giving the wrong temperature.
