It's a National Weather Service problem:

ftp://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/forecasts/city/ca/san_francisco.txt

FPUS46 KMTR 312034

City Forecast for San Francisco, CA
Issued Thursday afternoon - Mar 31, 2011

.Thursday night... Low 56, 0% chance of precipitation.
.Friday... Sunny, high 70, 0% chance of precipitation.
.Friday night... Low 54, 10% chance of precipitation.
.Saturday... Mostly cloudy, high 59.
.Saturday night... Low 47.

Note the date.

The files on their FTP server were apparently rolled back to some
date weeks ago. I've sent their webmaster a note.
