You mention going to http://wxdata.weather.com/wxdata/search/search?where=xxx to search location.

Do that NOW and you get "This service is deprecated as of 01/15/2020".

And as of TODAY, vClouds Weather 2 NO longer works. Has been flawless using the original location code, I am in CANADA by the way, and I get the NEW style 64 character code. I attempted to double check my location WAS correct as "caxx0294", and it WILL still bring up the correct location page to view, so I assume the XML feed is done? If I change page however, say go to the 5 day forecast, I then get "8c022d9e8074a4b16aea8780d7665929cde7bc460126111ba8187fcab7af6177" as a location code. So there you have it. Is this the END of Rainmeter weather???

:confused:
