NWS (National Weather Station) is revamping their website. In doing so they changed the link FE-Buddy Currently uses to retrieve all the Weather Stations for the NAS. Located in the Download Helpers File

The problem in FE-Buddy is this line of code in the GetAptData

This is the new link

However, this bug can not be resolved until NWS fixes their website.

I found that the new link does not return anything except a "Page Not Found Error" and an informational link showing that they are aware of the links not existing.

Further detail and a list of changes can be found here at the WX Gov Migration Link and here at the Forecast Migration Link

it’s sloppy but screw it… it’s v2.x….

Change to the new link.

If download returns blank or does not exist, create a generic/blank output file with a single set of 00,00 coordinates.

This way it can continue with other functions. Don’t worry about making a fancy notification for this or anything, just include this process in the change log.

In v3.x we can keep in mind an alternative action if any file is not found or is corrupt for some reason.
