Re: Weather Display
I get a "403 Forbidden" when I try to access that URL. But if the "wdl" in the URL means "Weather Display Live", then yes, a WS1080 will work with that, but you will have to buy both Weather Display and Weather Display Live.
If you want something similar to WDL for Cumulus, there is "Cumulus Realtime". It uses Silverlight and looks like this:http://sanday.org.uk/weather/realtime.htm
You can download it from the Downloads page: http://sandaysoft.com/downloads
It's still very much a "work in progress"; at some point I will get back to it and do some improvements.

Re: Weather Display
Having run both Cumulus & WD my recommendation is to start with Cumulus( much simpler to set up & is a very good programme [thanks to Steve]). If & when you want to do more with your PWS, WD is an option you could look at ( amongst others). My experience is that both Brian (WD), & Steve (Cumulus) are both passionate about their programmes & both will attempt to help you with any questions you may have !!
