nwsForecast Block Error
Hello... There seems to be an issue with the nwsForecast block forecast temperatures, they are 12 hours off.

Re: nwsForecast Block Error
Hi,
the problem is in the fact that the block uses HTML scraping and given how often NWS changes their website it is pointless trying to fix this.
What I need is some machine readable format - JSON, XML etc. so if anyone knows about something it would be great. Otherwise it is just fixing something that is likely to break in couple of weeks again

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but it's NWS's XML link from the same forecast page...
https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.p ... tType=dwml
P.S. The text/detailed forecast under the "More" link is correct, just not the icon forecast.

Re: nwsForecast Block Error
Are you using "station" or coordinates in the block setup?
I'm using station.
