Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• api.openweathermap.org
  • Triggering command: /usr/local/bin/node /home/REDACTED/work/weather-app/weather-app/node_modules/react-scripts/scripts/test.js --watchAll=false (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to my firewall allow list
