I'm still trying to debug if the remote station has issues or me (probably me)

Using this wunderground station

https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KCAFRESN59

It works for a few hours but over time it will give the message below

error

From this point on the weather station will never move past this error and to fix it you have to swap stations and then go back to the original station.

Looking at the API requests, the second API request is missing the geocode coordinates (the one to here). I cannot get to my computer right now so there is not anything I can do. However, the next time there is an error go to the PWS Observation URL and check if there is the lat and lon properties. This will help me when I can get to my computer. Thanks!

Okay I rebooted and for some reason it sends a request before I connected to the wifi or something and stops here:

Okay thanks! Plasma sending the request before you connect to WiFi is a Plasma problem. However, I could solve the

never mov[ing] past this error and to fix it you have to swap stations and then go back to the original station.

problem by removing the running condition in main.qml. This would mean that the plasmoid would continue sending requests until you connect to WiFi. I am getting on this.
