This has been discussed quite a lot already You can consider moving to Dark Sky weather for example.

I have the same issue since last night, but get the message:
2019-03-06 04:25:31.089 Error: WUnderground: Error: this key is not valid due to exceeding rate plan

It did work this afternoon for a hour and a half, but is gone again. Seems like IBM now wants you to pay through your nose to get just the temperature and radiation (as it was a better indication for the outside light condition over LUX). For what they charge per month (for information they recieve free from the community) I can buy my own z-wave weather station. As Dark Sky Weather is also not free, I will look for a free alternative

Ok thx for update

Owners of a PWS (Private Weather Station) can still use weatherunderground.
After I sent an e-mail to [email protected], I received a new API-key.
unfortunately, this key does not work, the json call in domoticz I think still needs to be adjusted.
I got from her the following link where documentation can be found: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eKC ... gArAY/edit

Looking at the WUnderground-forum I see a message dated 6th of March from Victoria.Gardner that 22th of March 2019 is closure date also for all 'uploading' PWSes.
'Downloading' clients had a closure date of 31st of December 2018, apparently with an ambigious grace-period extending into March 2019.

The date of March 22, 2019 is only applicable for PWS users. "Normal" users, without a private weather station were cut off at March 5 already
March 22 is the final date that PWS users should move from their "old" API key to their "new"API key as their "old" keys will be discontinued.
See the following extract from the mail:


Dear PWS uploaders, thank you for your continued loyalty and patience!

The gateway for the new API keys for PWS uploaders is open.
Cut and paste this URL into your browser: https://www.wunderground.com/member/api-keys
If you are not logged in, you will be asked to. The system will also verify that you have a PWS uploading to the system.

You will then see a blank box below “Your API keys”. Agree to the new Terms and Conditions by clicking in the small box next to “I agree”, click on the blue “GENERATE” box, and your new key will be created. The key will be masked on the screen, but you can use the “Show” link below the box to see it. There is also another blue box, which, when clicked, copies the key to your clipboard.
If you have any problems, log out and log back in again. If that does not resolve the problem, please email me at [email protected].

Next, once you have your new key, you can use it in the NEW (not old!) API’s commands. The documentation for those commands is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eKC ... gArAY/edit

The new API should work immediately once you have the new key in the new commands. Remember that the new keys work on the new API only, and the old keys work on the old API only.

Old API keys that are associated with a PWS will be kept working until March 22, 2019. However, that will be the very last day for those API keys to work, so you should transition as quickly as you can to the new API. API keys not associated with a personal weather station will be disabled at the beginning of March.

Any additional updates will be made through the Weather Underground API user forum.
