Thank you for letting me know! I'll look in to it ASAP. In the mean time, do check out the rnoaa package, which provides much of the same functionality. I intend to begin using rnoaa on the backend for FedData, which should help in avoiding service interruptions in the future.

Fixed by switching to NCEI's https file servers... FTP service was disabled.

Hi @bocinsky. Thanks for the help.
However, I tried the new version and got a series of errors and a warning message at the end without downloading any data still. I have attached an excerpt of the warning and error message. I have also attached the code.

##error

Ugh! The file format on the http server changed just enough to screw with things. I've implemented a correction, and am testing now. Reopening this! Thank you!

Any updates regarding this?

Sorry, should have closed this. I pushed changes to Github last week that fix the issue, but am holding off on CRAN submission for now. Please install the dev version:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("ropensci/FedData")

I'll close this now.
