On August 3rd 2016 the National Weather Service eliminated the web service found at weather.noaa.gov. This web site was hard coded as the source of METAR data for the X-Plane® version 9 Real-Weather feature. Since X-Plane® 9 is no longer being updated the only fix was to upgrade to X-Plane version 10 or 11.
