I recently encountered the same issue. After investigating, it seems like the OpenWeather API has changed a lot. Here are some observations:

• The OpenWeather free plan no longer provides hourly or daily forecasts. Instead it only provides a 3-hour/5-day forecast. This forecast is only accurate down to 3-hour intervals, and I had to aggregate the data client-side to get a bespoke daily forecast.
• The format of the JSON responses have changed.
• There is a separate API for current weather included in the free plan.
• UVI data is no longer free

I have a few commits in my fork to get things working with the free plan: https://github.com/alexbox23/awesome-wm-widgets Feel free to use it. For now I'm not submitting a PR, since it will break any users paying for the true hourly/daily forecast. Someone with the paid subscription would have to implement and test support for both free and paid APIs.

Hope this helps. Friendly ping @streetturtle in case you aren't aware :)
