@jermaine171993 The data for this particular module is based in the Netherlands and the original developer stated it was for the Netherlands. I’m suspecting it won’t display data for anywhere not in the Netherlands. (I really want to use this too here in the US).

@Wenike @jermaine171993 I’m working on somthing similar based on the climacell API (providing worldwide data). Will be ready in a few days.
Currently working on https://github.com/lavolp3/MMM-Buienalarm/tree/climacell

Will move to a new rep soon.

@lavolp3 Awesome, please let me know when you do have one and I’ll even offer testing if you want.

@lavolp3 just wondering if your done with the followng module ?

Can you provide the config for dallas Taxas US cant get this to work with my mirror ?

@jermaine171993 I’m working on it but have to say that the climacell data is very disappointing for Germany, where I live.
I will publish it so you can test out Texas :-)

@jermaine171993 @Wenike
I have finished the module, would you mind trying that out?

As said, it uses the climacell api and I’m currently not satisfied with the output.
Openweathermap has a minutely output for 1 hour, that might be another option.

@lavolp3 It looks real good! Sorry for the delayed response, I find it easier to do the work over VNC and my Chromebook (which I use for that) decided that it was going to frequently crash on me and after powerwashing it, I didn’t have VNC configured anymore. Of course, its also been somewhat dry lately, so I can’t say what it looks like with actual rain forecasted but I like how neatly it slots into my weather card.

@wenike Thanks for the feedback. I am currently not using it since climacell really gave me very unreliable numbers here in Germany. Happy to hear how it is for anyone else over in the US or elsewhere.
