2016-08-25 Thread adrian
Hi,
NOAA moved the url on which you can get the data.
I use clweather, a little command-line util, I just change the URL in the
sourcecode and it worked again.
The move happen a couple of weeks ago.
The new URL to point the application to  is:
http://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/observations/metar/decoded/

Good luck & 73,
Adrian

I installed it and it now gets current conditions just fine.

is no forecast available. Possible coincidence??

The Gnome weather report applet has ceased working on CentOS5/6.
http://weather.noaa.gov/ says "This service is no longer available". Are there
any good alternatives? I liked the applet as it allowed the use of a custom
radar map.

As I just discovered, the weather functionality of the CentOS6 Gnome clock
applet was using the same service.

The MATE clock applet's "show weather" function has quit on my desktops as of 
sometime yesterday.  And the stand-alone weather applet doesn't work at all, 
either.

I was wondering why that had happened.

It would be good to have someone sue US government for that. According to
US law, everything paid for by taxpayer's money should be freely
accessible by everybody (including non-US entities). Compare, e.g., with
GPS.

"Smaller" government, Cut taxes (for the rich). Make people pay for what
they're already paying taxes to support


Had you gone to noaa.gov, and clicked on climate, it appears that they
want to now charge you $3/yr for the service.

The code for the respective applets is quite different. Mate uses weather.com, 
but I bet the API is different and a fix requires actual coding.

Hm, this is bad. I was relying on this feature heavily.
Let's see if there is a fix. I don't imagine RH will care about this on EL6, 
but maybe MATE guys could help.

[CentOS] Gnome weather applet stranded

2016-08-24 Thread isdtor
The Gnome weather report applet has ceased working on CentOS5/6. 
http://weather.noaa.gov/ says "This service is no longer available". Are there 
any good alternatives? I liked the applet as it allowed the use of a custom 
radar map.

As I just discovered, the weather functionality of the CentOS6 Gnome clock 
applet was using the same service.
