    1. Hi Shannon. Thanks for your question. The answer is a complicated yes and no. The US Naval Observatory still gives the current time by telephone number. The problem is that when I called, there was no answer so I don't know how often the service works. "Free weather Call" gives the correct temperature but does not account for daylight savings time so they are an hour off. I would recommend calling your local public library and they will get the correct time and temperature for you. In the meantime here is what I found.
      United Stated Naval Observatory for time:(202) 762-1401
      Free Weather Call: (812) 775-1212
