With regard to xml.weather.com, I can report that the feed is still active but they must have something in place that prevents multiple requests for different zip codes/locations in a specific timeframe as I can indeed see weather but 2 request within 5 minutes for different zip code does not appear to work.

Ignore this. I was running a PEPv1 configuration on a remote with PEPv2+ firmware. My Prontoscript on Firm Keys was not working.

Dohhhhh!!!!
