It's returning 18mph as the @CurrentWindGust for me right now... USVA0944.

I tried different location values (Florida 33418, Virginia 22308, NY 11762) using your provided files but that always seems to come up empty. I only just started looking things over so I'm not sure where the problem is yet.
I also can confirm both measures [@CurrentWindGust] and [@CurrentWindSpeed] return values. Right now for my location they do, but just tried for all three locations posted by you and [@CurrentWindGust] do return value for all three.

Nice to know someone is seeing values but I have yet to see a single value for any location I tried. This is USVA0944 that I see at 12:47a:

This is what I see for @CurrentWindGust at this time for 11762, 33418, 22308, USVA0944 and USAL0332 also. The regex you created works fine but weather.com is returning nulls ("gust":null) for me for all 5 locations. I'll be looking forward to seeing a value at some point since others are. I'm just posting this to show I'm not crazy. I really don't see any value.

Right now (almost 10 AM UTC) I get the following values:
  • 6 for 11762
  • 4 for 33418
  • 1 for 22308
  • 1 for USVA0944
  • 3 for USAL0332
My question is where precisely are you adding those location codes? I have the feeling that you're doing something wrong.

No one told this.
I've checked the following at 8:00 am EDT

USVA0944 - Wind: 2 - Gust: 0
USAL0332 - Wind: 3 - Gust: 0
22308 - Wind: 3 - Gust: 0
33418 - Wind: 2 - Gust: 0
11762 - Wind: 2 - Gust: 0

Are you showing a "Gust" speed for those locations? If so then I also have problems.

Yes, I am. But still have the same question as previously:

So where have you added the codes (11762, 33418, 22308, USVA0944 and USAL0332)? Please let us know precisely. I think you're not adding them where they should be.

Thanks. I have not seen a "gust" speed at my location, USNY1233, for the last 2 days which I do not feel is unusual. In fact I may not see a "Gust" speed for a week or more sometimes.

Sure, not seeing any value for gust is not unusual or something to be concerned about. Even if the actual wind is significant, that doesn't mean there are gusts that are significant enough to measure.

Wow, OK. If you don't mind checking what are you showing for my location USNY1233? I am showing Wind: 7 mph- Gust: 0 mph at 8:40 EDT.
