My experience with the weather applet and automatic updates, combined with suspend/resume, is altogether bad: almost every time after resuming from suspend the applet will be stuck updating, and I have to update manually. The worst thing is that the icon does not give a clue about the data being stale, so I guess many people don't see how bad it really is.
