Probably. NOAA has had a notice up for a while now that they are moving to
a 'new' system of providing data.

I've got on my TODO to write a new weather plugin using the API of
www.noahweather.org to hit the new raw NOAA data sites. Just not sure when
I'll get around to it.

I can take a look at the current weather plugin and maybe mod it to limp
along for a bit.
