I've been getting the following error for a while.

isd_stations(refresh = TRUE)

Error in file(file, "rt") : 
  cannot open the connection to 'https://www1.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/noaa/isd-history.csv'
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
  URL 'https://www1.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/noaa/isd-history.csv': Timeout of 60 seconds was reached

I can grab the isd-history.csv file from the FTP site. I can't seem to find where to update this in the package. I'm not sure how this is called.

Any advice on how to update this?

Perhaps add this to issue #296?

Thanks for any help in advance!

Thanks for the issue @jrherr !

Will have a look

[sckott]

Looks like it was probably some temporary downtime for their servers. Wokring for me now. Does it still not work for you?

[jrherr]

Hi @sckott! Thanks for looking into this. The fetch "connects" now, but it's throwing this error:

rlang::last_error()
<error/tibble_error_assign_incompatible_size>
Assigned data `meteo_spherical_distance(...)` must be compatible with existing data.
x Existing data has 27996 rows.
x Assigned data has 0 rows.
x Only vectors of size 1 are recycled.

I'm looking into it... Thanks again!

[sckott]

Assigned data meteo_spherical_distance(...) must be compatible with existing data.

hmm, not sure about this. I don't see how that stack trace would come from a call to isd_stations(). is that from a different function call that failed?
