I I've been using Forecast within a modified exfoliation skin with no problems until it stopped fetching the forecasts. I use NWS and Open Weather and these dwindled from a seven day to five, three, one, then none. Running the Forecast skin gives the same non-result.  Where would I look for the problem? I tried an uninstall/reinstall to no avail. Thanks for help.

posting your log may help identify any problems

I've attached a syslog extract. I noticed this near the end of file:

Aug 30 12:40:25 raspberrypi weewxd: forecast: NWSThread: NWS: got 38 forecast records for WOODLAND PARK-TELLER CO 38.99N 105.05W Elev. 8922 ft

Aug 30 12:40:25 raspberrypi weewxd: forecast: NWSThread: NWS: forecast failure: addRecord() got an unexpected keyword argument 'log_level

Maybe this indicates the problem?

You are using a version of forecast that has not yet been fully ported to WeeWX 4.

You will have better luck here:

Thanks; that worked. I did try an uninstall/reinstall, but used the (old) version pointed to in the wiki. Perhaps that link should be updated.
