The DWD Weather node is a very usefull thing. However the mosixStation ID has to be entered statically. If I want to make a selection with a drop down menü to select between a couple of stations, I would like to use a variable. Has anyone an idea how to do it or to call a variable in the mosixStation field of the node? Thanks in advance.
