      I figured it out. I use the free plan, so I cannot use API version 3.0. I have to use API version 2.5. Furthermore I have to use the /weather endpoint.

      I got it working again by adding these 2 settings:

      apiVersion: '2.5'
      weatherEndpoint: "/weather"

          I have rebuilt my installation and used backup .js files.

          Everything has worked apart from the weather module.

          I am getting the ‘Invalid date’ message a temperature of NaN.

          I have tried adding the apiVersion: ‘2.5’
          weatherEndpoint: “/weather”

          Lines into the config.js file but then MagicMirror doesn’t load.

          the section of config.sys is:

          {
          			module: "weather",
          			position: "top_right",
          			config: {
          				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
          				type: "current",
          				location: "Machat",
          				locationID: "2983291", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
          
          
          				apiKey: "cxxxxxxxxxxxx57f81f9d82849a2fc21a"
          			}
          		},
          		{
          			module: "weather",
          			position: "top_right",
          			header: "Weather Forecast",
          			config: {
          				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
          				type: "forecast",
          				location: "Machat",
          				locationID: "2983291", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
          
          
          				apiKey: "cxxxxxxx57f81f9d82849a2fc21a"
          			}
          		},

            @lif are you on 2.29 or 2.30?

            cd ~/MagicMirror
            grep version package. json

              @lif said in "Invalid Date" appears in Weather module. MM v2.29.0:

              > I have tried adding the apiVersion: '2.5'
              > weatherEndpoint: "/weather"
              

              each of those lines had trailing commas, right?

                Not that line but that wasn’t the problem :-)

                Thanks for the link showing how to subscribe to OpenWeathermap which solved the problem.
