Looks like google isn't playing nice anymore:

About this page

Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen?

This page appears when Google automatically detects requests coming from your computer network which appear to be in violation of the Terms of Service. The block will expire shortly after those requests stop. In the meantime, solving the above CAPTCHA will let you continue to use our services.

This traffic may have been sent by malicious software, a browser plug-in, or a script that sends automated requests. If you share your network connection, ask your administrator for help — a different computer using the same IP address may be responsible. Learn more

Sometimes you may be asked to solve the CAPTCHA if you are using advanced terms that robots are known to use, or sending requests very quickly.

This may be the end to googles text to speech access....

Hi Greg,

Something is going on with google text to speech.  I am looking into it.  the mp3 file being returned  is failing to be converted to a wav file using lame decode.

The file contains html data and is being redirected.  

This may require changes to the core text to speech  scripts. 

More to follow...

After a restart on my BBB my weather scripts broken. Tried running the config again to no avail. I get

mv: cannot stat ‘/tmp/tts/audio3894.ul’: No such file or directory

as the output of running the script that is in crontab manually. tmp directory has green highlight when ls is issued. Not sure what that is but it looks like the script doesn't have ability to write to tmp folder. I sent touch testfile to the directory manually with no issue. Any ideas??
Thanks
Greg
