@sdetweil Thanks for the tip. The errors were at the bottom. This is what I found:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 400 ()

@sdetweil do you know where I could get an appid for weathergov? The documentation for the module is very thin

sdetweil

no key required for that point… only works for US locations

mrlowndes

@sdetweil Do you have any suggestions as to what I should try next?

sdetweil

@mrlowndes u can test that the api works from your location

put this in your browser

https://api.weather.gov/points/LAT,LON/forecast

replace the LAT,LON
by the values from the google maps (maps.google.com) of your location…
in the url, you will see two numbers xx.yyyyyy,-uu.zzzzzz
just cut/paste that whole set of numbers and paste over the LAT,LON (notice the comma comes with the numbers too)

mrlowndes

@sdetweil Thanks so much, the documentation doesn’t make that clear at all

sdetweil

@mrlowndes no, this is just a test… making sure the api would work as called by the module

mrlowndes

@sdetweil yeah, no dice. This came up in my browser

"title": "Data Unavailable For Requested Point",
    "type": "https://api.weather.gov/problems/InvalidPoint",
    "status": 404,
    "detail": "Unable to provide data for requested point 34.5444,119.7913",
    "instance": "https://api.weather.gov/requests/8199fbe2-ac6c-4c7c-b109-ed162794f780"

@mrlowndes as I said, only works for US locations

mrlowndes

@sdetweil yeah, it is a US location
