Hi, I'm going to integrate a forecast weather on dashboard, in a dedicated page, my goal is to represent as best as possible to actual situation hourly (help me decide how to dress up/what to expect) addign temperature/wind and amount of rain prediction. Then have a look on next days.. There are s…

The "best" it is not about the nodes or flow so much as the weather data source. What good is "pretty" if it isn't at least fairly accurate. The nodes and flows just make up the look and feel of the display of data, and that can be as subjective as they come :slight_smile: I use something I found…

I use openweathermap too. Here my Dashboard vor the day and week forecast: [image] the day forecast can switch hourly to every 8 hours: [image] the weekly forecast [image] and last but .. the wind and sunposition (later to control the blinds ;-)) [image][image] BR Hubertus

As @Gunner says, the important thing is accuracy and that varies from location to location. I did a comparison of weather API's quite some time back here on the forum. Where I live, only highly localised forecasts are ever even remotely accurate since the weather can be significantly different less…

Hi mates, yes exactly I meant that.. as I go more info seems OpenWeather is the only platform that may be useful for us, so we dont' have many choices.. and for the "best", well yes I mean how it looks like, you did amazing job! Very beautiful and actually Hubertus this is what I would like to do, …

Hi, thanks for infos, well actually not really essential to have an accurate one, telling the truth. It's almost useful to know the way I've dress up tomorrow (cold/hot) and which jacket and (if) umbrella, useful.. I'll add a button t switch on smart home dashboard, and I'll implement a timeout to …

Here's a couple of links to some tutorials I gave to my IoT students for a project using OpenWeather node. [image] Weather reports from around the world Share Your Projects I had a couple of new students join my IoT Computer Club a couple of weeks ago and gave them this si…

Yes i can - but it is complex :wink: and it is to big for the reply. i share it as a zip file: openwweatherflow.pdf (8.0 KB) Download it and rename to openweatherflow.zip to uncompress [image] the node "Einstellungen Wetter Vorschau stündlich lesen" is to trigger once the system restart to read…

Not really any point in calling it every 5 minutes because I don't think it updates more than once an hour.

lovely :heart_eyes: thank you a lot, can't wait to test it! I'll try to implement something else ))
