 * Hi –
 * I looked at the filters available, and it looks like the Wunderground API key
   is hard-coded into the plugin (both in PHP and JS).
 * I have a developer API key – is there a) any advantage to using mine vs. the 
   one included in the plugin and b) is there is method to switch it? Looks like
   the keys are inside private classes so I don’t think I can override them.
 * I know WAPI has limits per hour/day, so was wondering if (assuming the same API
   key is used for all plugin instances) I would hit a limit based on other users,
   or if Wunderground made that API key ‘limitless’ ?
 * Thanks

 * BUMP
 * Plugin seems to be not working today (perhaps the wunderground source is down?)
