WeatherUnderground was effectively shut down post-purchase. API signup is gone, etc. Terrible transition and no support for prior products.

This is 100% true. They abandoned so many good parts of WU and, today, it seems to continue to operate as data collection (mobile apps / home weather stations) and ad revenue generation.

Weather underground is a shell of what it used to be. They got rid of a ton of features and cluttered everything with ads
