Missing point forecasts
« on: May 24, 2018, 09:44:28 PM »
Basically old topic but a new iteration for me. Screen shot says it all. Just discovered the problem, but as of ~2 hours ago it was working fine. I have 21 cities on my drop down and they all show the error message but with the appropriate zone info. Spoke to a forecaster at PSR (he gave me ~20 minutes - very nice!) and he says all on his end is fine.

Thoughts appreciated.

It may all be fine for the NWS person, but the gridpoint forecast for PSR was not available on api.weather.gov .. that's something they should address.  It's why I added the verbiage to make it easy to contact them (as the docs say on the weather.gov site).  Perhaps they missed a memo somewhere...

Apparently so. I actually read the complete message to him including what to look at - guess it went the same place the point forecasts did.

Thanks, Ken.

Same problem with the newer version I was having.
Now using V4.05 - 21-May-2018 and only stringing out 4 decimals like Ken suggested on location and using the preferred location instead of my own in Settings.php and all is well going on 30+ hours without forecast hang requiring a force update.

Started seeing that message today on my site as well for OKX.. Prior to updating advforecast2 a few days ago, I really hadn't see any issues with point forecasts for quite some time.. Coincidence?
