the weewx forecasting extension uses only one URL for NWS - the URL for point forecast matrices in plain text format: http://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&product=PFM&format=txt&issuedby=XXX where XXX is the forecast office identifier, such as BOX for Boston. the v3 equivalent is: https://forecast-v3.weather.gov/products/PFM/XXX/1?format=text if you are using any version of the forecasting extension, you can try the NWS v3 servers by doing this in weewx.conf: [Forecast] [[NWS]] ... url = https://forecast-v3.weather.gov/products/PFM/XXX/1?format=text the v3 servers have been available since early november 2016. i think they are supposed to go live in january 2017. if you keep using the old URLs they should redirect to the new api, at least for awhile. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
