Has it finally happened? I somehow hoped it would just keep getting postponed forever, but I’ve starting to get the ominous errors:
Unable to connect to Dark Sky. 503 Server Error: Service Temporarily Unavailable
Is this really the end? There still sensors I haven’t found substitutions for like the daily and weekly summaries. Any ideas?
I’m having the same problem at the moment. Seems it was working this morning but it’s not now, even after restarting Home Assistant. This might just be the end.
I suggest moving to Pirate Weather. I’ve already got that integration running and it appears to be basically a drop in replacement. GitHub - alexander0042/pirate-weather-ha: Replacement for the default Dark Sky Home Assistant integration using Pirate Weather
Time to go update all my automations…
Yes I’ve tried it, but I don’t get sensors for text descriptions of the day’s weather and the week’s weather, do you? One that’s like “mostly cloudy throughout the day, rainy in the evening” and “rain expected mid week, clearing up on the weekend”?
Mine was dead earlier, but has now started working again. I moved over to Pirate Weather tonight, but still had Dark Sky installed. I just checked and its back for now - they must’ve been teasing us before the big shutoff 
Yep came back! Just a fire drill. Gave me some time to fix some stuff for the real thing.
Yeah Pirate Weather seems to be missing those descriptive forecasts. Definitely a bummer 
Dead again
Yeah keeps coming and going. They must be firing warning shots so that we get off our arses. I just converted everything over to pirate weather except the descriptions… Guess I’ll have to take those out.
Anybody getting a precipitation error when trying to set this up?

I got you covered - I’m having the same issue:
Ope, nevermind, turns out I was still on 2022.11.x - upgrading to 2023.3.x resolved this for me.
