This appears to be an XML file, not and RSS feed. The header says:
<?xml-stylesheet href="latest_ob.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<current_observation version="1.0"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";

Please do not use plugin_wiki. It is deprecates as almost all of its
