Mythweather 6 day forecast does not display high temperatures

[Steve Fatula <steve@…>]

Mythweather perl script yrnoxml.pl does not show high temperatures as is. It actually seems to pick the last time range in the xml file it gets. In my case, this is midnight to 6AM, hardly the high temperature! It appears to capture the last timerange in the xml file, and, use that to determine each days highs. Here's my locations xml results section for the temperatures at the end. I will also attach what it shows on the display. You'll note, for example, that the high on the 21st (Sunday) shows at 54 in mythweather, when actually that's the low! The main problem would appear to be the variable $lastperiod. Instead of using that logic, if one wanted the high, perhaps instead it should browse the days temps and pick the highest one since really it could be at any time of day. Failing that, it should pick as lastdate the highest date bucket numerically perhaps.

I can fix the code abd submit a patch if need be, just give me your preference if you agree this is a bug. If I understand correctly, the file timestamps are in local time since there is no offset and therefore no timezone logic is needed for those time ranges.
