FYI, I just happened to be checking my station on WU and noticed it said it was offline since a little after 6 US/Eastern. No problem with WeeWx...

This is going on right now:

Actually, I was only glancing at the chart.
According to the table, my last record was posted at 7:15 p.m. US/Eastern.
Anyone else having the same issue?

IBM is having a major cloud outage. Lots of sites impacted

Greg, thanks, for the confirmation.

As a result of this I took a look at my API key and found that it expired in Nov 2019, even though it's been working all this time. I just renewed it and updated it in my config, but that didn't help.

As a side-note, apparently API keys are only good for 6 months. New one is only good through Dec.
Clearly they don't bother to send a reminder about expiry, so I set one manually. Par for the course re: (lack-there-of) quality from IBM, since taking over WU. :-(((((

\Leon

The IBM cloud has been having an outage, my guess it’s related.

Considering IBM owns WU it’s a safe bet it is related

That outage was just over 3 hours long and service was restored about 2 hours ago.  At least for me, per my logs and resulting uploads.
