Since late last night, I started getting errors running the python package for Meteosat with both my own code and with the sample code when the output of the point() function is used to call the Daily() or Hourly() functions.

Set time period

start = datetime(2018, 1, 1)
end = datetime(2018, 12, 31)

Create Point for Vancouver, BC

vancouver = Point(49.2497, -123.1193, 70)

Get daily data for 2018

data = Daily(vancouver, start, end)
data = data.fetch()
