Last week we put out a new release of AWIPS, and that is why your python-script 
is not currently working. We updated
our public EDEX server (edex-cloud.unidata.ucar.edu) and the previous version 
of python-awips is not compatible.
You should be able to simply update the python-awips package (either with pip 
or conda) and then the script should
resume working.

Since you use python-awips and our public EDEX server, it might be useful for 
you to join our awips2-users mailing
list.  We only send out emails about AWIPS updates, outages and our bi-weekly 
blog series. If you're interested you
can sign up here:

Please let me know if that makes sense and if the package update resolves the 
issue.
Thanks.
