You can read the thread that was linked, that was just the start of  
the thread.

The tl;dr; is that WeatherUnderground's API is dead, and the WWO API  
has changed it's API and licensing since our implementation was  
written. We will NOT be updating it because of the restrictive link  
back requirements. The OpenWeatherMap driver needs some work to be  
useable because of the way the location ids and searching work. It's  
mostly useable in git master, but not yet fully ready. We might also  
look at adding a DarkSky API driver in the future if there is enough  
interest...
