Same problem here. User reported that the node was saying 'temperature
zero'.  Here is the information you requested (using the stock weather.sh):

[root at ssarcPi sbin]# host myip.hamvoip.org
myip.hamvoip.org is an alias for hamvoip.org.
hamvoip.org has address 74.91.126.182
hamvoip.org mail is handled by 10 mail.hamvoip.org.

[root at ssarcPi sbin]# wget -qO- http://myip.hamvoip.org
209.153.81.36

[root at ssarcPi sbin]# weather.sh 64083
0??F, -18??C /
[root at ssarcPi sbin]# weather.sh 28405
0??F, -18??C /
[root at ssarcPi sbin]# weather.sh 28139
66??F, 19??C / Sunny

I did some experimenting with the curl command as found in weather.sh. I
found that if I removed the metric\=${FAHRENHEIT}\& from the curl command,
everything worked. Put it back in and temp=0.

[root at ssarcPi sbin]# weather.sh 64083  *modified script*
61??F, 16??C / Sunny
[root at ssarcPi sbin]# weathersave.sh 64083  *this is the original script
renamed*
0??F, -18??C /

I got mixed results when visiting the same urls in a browser on my desktop.
Sometimes it worked, sometimes I got zero temps. Very puzzling...

Hi Rick,

I did some experimenting earlier today.  I agree that the returned results
seem to be unreliable.  I just read a comment in the Accuweather RSS
documentation that setting metric=1 is for Celsius and metric=2 is
Fahrenheit.  I tried both and leaving the metric parameter out entirely.  
Sometimes the query works, sometimes it reports 0 degrees.

Also, I tried running the query with and without TLS (HTTP/80 and then 
HTTPS/443)....The HTTP/80 results seemed more consistent, but still not 
perfect.

Looking further at their API documentation, I'm suspecting that they're 
now requiring a key/subscription for "premium" access.  Also, while 
accessing their on-line docs, I had several pages time-out, getting 
errors.  So, they might have some kind of infrastructure issue going on??

I know this API had worked very reliably....Not sure when this changed?

73, David K4FXC
