Anyone know where to edit the API token/key? I noticed my thermostat which also uses foreca for weather not working for the last week and a half. Highly suspect.

I second that notion.
If you ask for a free trial at Foreca to use their API for 30 days, and change the Jolla credential to your own in /usr/lib64/qt5/qml/Sailfish/Weather/ForecaToken.js , the weather is back (for 30 days).

it seems to be an official Jolla Issue. It stopped working on My 10 II an also on the 10 II of my wife… at the same time.
@Jolla what is the issue there, and is somebody looking into that? Has Jolla stopped the licensing or paying for the service to reduce costs? It is getting very quiet arount Jolla… where is the Communication with the comunity about the current situation?

In the other related thread that is linked at beginning of this one they already confirmed they are looking into the issue: Weather-App and Widget Connection Problem - #25 by rainemak

a 30 days free trial as a workaround is not solving the problem.

Isn’t that the definition of the workaround?

It was not to be seen as a solution, but more something to highlight the fact that the Foreca API didn’t change and the problem seems to be on Jolla side.

Really hope they’ll solve the issue as after 8 years with jolla’s weather i really can’t get used to meecast xD

Meecast is fine, but it’s a pity that there is no intraday forecast for the events view

That’s good, hope it gets resolved soon!
For me it looks like Jolla stopped the licensepayments or that “payed in advance service” that was booked for a defined time period, or it ended without an information from Foreca about the ending of the payed in advance service. And there is not a single official statement of Jolla (“we are looking into it”, is not a statment ). So that doesn’t look healthy…
@dcaliste Thaks for testing the free trial 30 Days option. It is now obvious where the issue is hiding…

switched to use meecast. works nicely. BTW it is not possible to directly uninstall jolla weather, unless you login into the jolla store and select an uninstall through the store option.

Its curious that foreca work in meecast. But I can’t install meecast addons.
Well, you can simply uninstall the packages on the CLI with, for instance zypper. That’s for the ssh to my phone crowd
It’s much better/worse. All of the services are scraped and xpath queries used to read the HTML documents. It’s a LOT of work that went into the original parsers. I haven’t installed the latest builds but I think the best thing, if you want the lock/event views, is to install those first and then the meecast proper package. @carmenfdezb does this sound right?

First, I uninstalled sailfish-weather from Terminal:
devel-su pkcon remove sailfish-weather
Next, I think I installed Meecast and then, meecast-event and meecast-daemon

Sorry, it’s not clear to me from the thread, but does uninstalling the jolla weather and installing meecast fix the weather widget in the events screen?
No, it replaces the weather widget with a differwnt widget
