I would suggest using MQTT. If all you want to capture is a single plate you could setup a simple MQTT alert in BI using a payload of {"&PLATE"}.
Then create a sensor in your config.yaml file
mqtt:
sensor:
- name: "Westbound Last Plate"
state_topic: "BLUE-IRIS/Last_Plate"...
In BI under Camera settings | Trigger | Motion sensor (Configure) | Use zones and hot spot (Edit...). This only masks the area so triggers will not occur in the masked area. Your timestamp will still be included in images/video.
I had to change the Powershell execution policy to get it to run, but it still doesn't work.

I must be doing something wrong. I installed WSL and tried to run the following command:
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/algertc/ALPR-Database/main/install.sh | bash
and I get an error that the docker daemon is not running even though it is.
It's in Docker. Before deleting it I would do what @PeteJ recommended and check your API key.
If you're going to delete the database I would recommend deleting all four volumes and the two images in the image folder and start over.
It still could be an issue with Weather Underground. You mentioned you had multiple API keys. You might try deleting all of them and then use the "Regenerate Key" option under "Member Settings".
