Have had my RainMachine off for the winter and getting it back on for the 2020 season.

I know in the fall last year there were issues with Wunderground local stations, I believe.

What is the latest info on this?  I have gone back into the Weather settings, cleared out my old Wunderground, added 2 local stations separated by a comma (per instructions)....but continue to get the "Error: No observed data received from station" message.

Would appreciate any updates on Wunderground as of April 2020.  NOAA I believe comes from an airport over 40 miles away, which just isn't local enough unfortunately.

  Hi, Jerome
  If you do not have a WUnderground API key, unfortunately, the weather parser will not work.

  For a possible solution please read this community forum post:

  Hi Julian-

  Just FYI that I followed that link, inserted the API key listed there by Adrian on January 9, 2020 (6532d6454b8aa370768e63d6ba5a832e) and I am now getting "Status: OK" for Wunderground!

  Though inside the Wunderground settings page where you paste the API key, I get a "failed! Please try again" message under that box.  

  But overall under active weather services for rainmachine it gives me the OK.   So I hope it is working properly despite that API key error message?

  Hi, Jerome
  Just keep an eye on it. The error for the API key should fix itself.
  
  Thank you for your patience and report.
