Folks, We are now releasing version 026 of the OurWeather software that supports our (drum roll please) new Amazon Alexa to OurWeather voice interface. We have released the software to the GitHub repository and will put it on the OTA update system later today. We published Part 1 of the 4 part manual for getting this working. It works for us and it is cool. www.switchdoc.com/2018/01/tutorial-voice-time-ourweather-and-amazon-alexa-part-1/BP |

I remember having these same problems going from 021 to 023 where one button on the admin screen says there is an upgrade, the next button says there is no upgrade. I'm using Chrome, but can't seem to get the upgrade to go.
Edit:
Scratch all of that, I just checked the version again and it now says I have 026.

Hello,
My "Our Weather" system has been running for several months without a glitch, continuously reporting my weather station data to WeatherUnderground and posting my station data on their website.
Today I updated my board to Ver. 026. The update ran without a problem and now shows that I have Ver. 026. Simultaneously, my weather station disappeared from WeatherUnderground.
In checking further into WeatherUnderground, my station account is still valid, but their webpage for my station now says, "This PWS is not reporting".
My station is reporting correctly to the OurWeather page via WiFi. The data on the Our Weather page is correct and complete.
Somehow, it seems that the update to Ver. 026 trashed the connection to WeatherUnderground, thus blocking their reporting of my weather station data.
My suggestion: Do NOT update to Ver. 026.
What is PubNub? My weather station OLED display now shows a message that "PubNub" is disabled. Do I need to enable PubNub in order to get my station data transferred to WeatherUnderground? And if so, how do I do that? Answers to these basic questions should be readily available BEFORE a new version is released, not after. You in-depth review (link below) talks much about Alexa, but it doesn't say anything about how I can again get my station data posted to WeatherUnderground.

Gilroy,
This sounds like a bug to us! I'll see if I can duplicate it on our system and get back to you. Agreed. Don't update to V026 right now. I'm not going to take it down, but we will get to the bottom of this WeatherUnderground problem today if possible.

Took less than 5 minutes to find out what is happening. The new PubNub keys (and I'll change that to Alexa) are wiping out the password for WeatherUnderground.
I'll go in and fix it now.

I've taken down 026 because it will corrupt eprom if you are using WeatherUnderGround. I'll have V027 up quickly after testing this evening.

OK, that wasn't too hard to fix. We were corrupting the EEPROM WeatherUnderground password with the new Alexa publishing and subscriber keys. I wrote the code and I have no idea what I was thinking of when I wrote the EEPROM writing code. It was sooooo dumb.
Fixed now. And Version 027 is up there for download.

PowderJockey,
Depended on when you updated, you may have to rewrite the Weather Underground ID and Key.

PowderJockey, Depended on when you updated, you may have to rewrite the Weather Underground ID and Key. BP Same as Avi. Did the re-submission of both station ID and key. Edit: Would be nice to have a confirmation pop up to advise the key and/or the ID were provided successfully or failed. |

There is a popup after. You didn't receive one? Try checking the version number to see if you are connected.
