FYI, AcuRite is going to be shutting down the Lake Geneva Mothership 
(servers) for the old SmartHub devices any day now (if they haven't 
already).  Just something to keep an eye on.

Just to follow up, the issue almost certainly was not with the Interceptor 
driver, but updating it was probably a good thing, anyway.

I have no clue what might have been the issue. It appears that something 
affected reception of the Acurite sensors' signal for about six hours this 
afternoon.

You can update over the old one. No need to remove the old one.
