Local Weather Data Temporary Unavailable
« on: July 15, 2014, 05:39:39 PM »
When I tried loading the emulator this morning, I saw the "Local Weather Data Temporary Unavailable" screen (see screenshot below). I tried rebuilding my config settings, changed to a different location, and even un-installed/re-installed the emulator, but I still kept seeing the unavailable screen. Is there something I did wrong?  :dunno:

Jim,
It appeared that the Zone you have chosen for the Coastal Waters Forecast did not actually provide forecasts 'pzz210'. This is visible here: http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/fmtbltn.pl?file=forecasts/marine/coastal/pz/pzz210.txt

I have updated the Zone to 'pzz255'. Visible here: http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/fmtbltn.pl?file=forecasts/marine/coastal/pz/pzz255.txt

This appeared to have corrected the issue.
