Hi Howard,
The plugin actually doesn't update variables at all. The old NOAA AppleScript technique did, but for the new NOAA plugin all of the weather information is stored inside of device states -- not variable values.
You can mirror device states into variable values if you want, but you have to create a Device State Change trigger type for each one you want mirrored and then use the action type Variable Actions -> Insert Device State into Variable. That normally isn't needed though since device states can be inspected on Control Pages and used in conditionals (just like variable values).
