@Suty but that doesn't explain why it won't work on WiFi Loggers V2 but is working on meteobridge weather stations that I have.

@Suty Hello,

This is what I am experiencing as a problem with WiFi Loggers V2 ever since Windy made some update on their end. Do I need a new API Key? The process of Windy.com export is super simple, we have entered the API Key and Station ID and enabled it as demonstrated in the screen shot. In fact, it was working in 2022. Could you please inquire internally what have you done on your end to cause this issue? It is working on Wunderground.com so we know the WiFi Logger V2 is working just fine.

@Suty Hello Suty,
In another attempt to get the WiFi Logger V2 station to come online. We are experiencing an error. This is strange because the same API Key is working on meteobridge stations. We know the WiFi Logger is working just fine because its uploading data to other websites such as Wunderground.

I have multiple weather stations (PWS) in Pakistan reporting data from Davis stations using meteobridge and WiFi loggers V2. However, last year the PWS reporting data from WiFi Loggers suddenly disappeared and stopped reporting data without any notice from Windy. On other hand, PWS using Meteobridge continue to work. Would you inform me what has happened? Do I need to create a new API Key? I attempted in April 2023 for my WiFi Logger based PWS to work with Windy, but they continue to not send any data to Windy. Solutions to this problem is welcomed.

@Cody-Pothier I agree with you. If they have made more advanced features on premium that would make sense. To take away a basic 10 day forecast for a subscription is indeed a cheapshot. I have been using windy since 2015 and this senseless act of greed was rather shocking!

@Petemen1 You are mixing up two different concepts. True air temperature and wind chill. Wind chill is not a temperature. As Mark mentioned earlier, its a calculated value based on wind speed. Even wind speeds vary so significantly between urban and rural and based on your local topography that you cannot blame Windy for not capturing that or for not displaying something you might be seeing on your PWS.

I like the comparison but would still like to be able to see the old style where it provided a graphical representation of wind over the hours.

Hello Team Windy,

In addition to what Abbas72 has to say, I would like to add that Wunderground is a huge competitor in the weather station hosting websites. In order to beat them, some innovation is needed as weather underground's interface hasn't changed much in over 6 years and has also gone down in quality thanks to the mapbox.com maps. Yuck! The real-time stream of data being uploaded to wunderground.com is every 2.5 seconds from meteobridge, which is impressive and is archived on wunderground. Windy should develop a platform such that if you click on your desired public weather station, it should provides you with the dynamic options, like historical data of that PWS etc, max wind speed of the day, week, month with a click of a button from a drop down menu, etc.
if the API is as attractive as Windy.com's present simulation of the weather models, hands down you guys would give lots of competition to other weather station hosting websites. I hope to see progress with this regard. This is quite exciting!
