Dear N4KHQ and WeatherCat troubleshooters,

WeatherCat must be doing something special in the startup process to repair the data feed to Weather Underground. I have restarted WC at least 25 times when I had a data outage ranging for 10 minutes to 9 hours and in every case, WU-PWS started updating. Something must be hanging WC in status = starting and it takes a restart to get current status running. When WC says status is starting and sending data that my PWS is not showing as being received, I have noticed WC start uploading Historical in the WC log.

You might need to ask Stuart Ball (WeatherCat developer) about it, but I'm not aware of anything that WeatherCat does upon restarted that could "repair" anything. The only thing WeatherCat will do upon a restart is try to upload all data that hadn't be uploaded in a historical mode. It could be the state of Weather Underground servers were such that they would accept the historical uploads while they were continuing to fall behind on real-time data. That's about the only thing I could imagine that would explain your observations.
Let's all hope that the platform migration is finally settled and we can go back to taking Weather Underground submissions for granted!
Cheers, Edouard
