Not sure where you got the IP address from, but as listed in the wikipedia article, it is only used for local comms. Most of use have a 192.168.x.y IP address on our STBs. This is just used to communicate to the rotuer that then will nat the address out.
I know this doesn't answer your real question though. My guess is either accuweather or weatherchannel. Try going to either one of these sites and enter your zipcode (same as you did in the widget). See which forecast more closely matches.
