9 months ago I will close this. BUT just so anyone else who happens across it.
WUNDERGROUND was bought by IBM apparently and no longer allows accounts to upload data without a fee and it is not cheap, unless you already had PWS devices uploading prior to the takeover. SO try looking up his Open Weather stations...similar but different site.

I am using the correct PWS ID, and my wunderground account pw as mentioned in the documentation but cannot successfully connect.
I am testing this with a DHT11, so the only other lines modified is the pin assignment, and the dht type.
It looks like the SW_temp, dewpoint and humidity lines in the system_variables.h file was already set correctly.
I am eventually wanting to add in the wind direction, wind speed, and rain sensors, possibly air quality as well. BUT first things first. This is the complete output I am getting. WiFi connected IP address: 192.168.254.30 Upload date-time: CCYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS expected Upload date-time: 1970-01-01+00:00:02 Connecting to : weatherstation.wunderground.com Connection failed Error uploading to Weather Underground, trying next time
And just in case you want to view the code as I have it...
