Yeah, we thought of that. If you want a different URL, you can specify it
with an option `server_url`. Mind you, I've never tested it, but it should
work.

[[Wunderground]]
# This section is for configuring posts to the Weather Underground.
# If you wish to post to the Weather Underground, set the option
# 'enable' to true, then specify a station (e.g., 'KORHOODR3'). Use
# the station key (find it at

enable = false
station = replace_me
password = replace_me
server_url = https://something-else.com
# Set the following to True to have weewx use the WU "Rapidfire"
# protocol. Not all hardware can support it. See the User's Guide.
rapidfire = False
