@ostfilinchen Anything in the logs? Works fine here…

IT could be your chosen weatherstation is feeding ‘estimated’ forecasts. The module skips those as they vary wildly (0 to 15 degrees C)… Should clear up on it’s own in that case.

Update: There was no logging on skipping estimated forecasts. Added it just now.

@RedNax in dev Mode it says: uncaught TypeError: cannot read property ‘cloudy’ of undefined. MMM-WunderGround.js Line 877

@ostfilinchen Some obsolete coloricon code got in the way it seems. Are you not using the coloricons?

[cowboysdude]

Thanks @RedNax I still remember the day I was trying to get this module to work [NOOOOOB LOL] and you helped me I appreciated that! Now the colors are just awesome!!!

I’m finding that myself personally colors are making my mirror stand out and I like it… I’m sure many other users do as well!

Thanks!

[ostfilinchen]

@RedNax I Use the colored Icons. After the last update it works. But i’m Not sure if it goes wrong with an other weather like cloudy…

[ostfilinchen]

@RedNax still the Same error. If the weather is cloudy on daytime, the Module don’t starts or hangs up. Can u please check this?

[RedNax]

@ostfilinchen Cannot reproduce your error. We have cloudy conditions here now and everything works fine.
One thing i did notice when using the remote control module is that it places the icon tables in the config.js for some reason. Could you check your config? Maybe you can pm me your config section.maybe it’s some combination of settings…

[ostfilinchen]

@RedNax I Start my mirror this afternoon in dev-mode. I will Check if I get an error. Also today i will send you my config. And yes. I Use the Remote control.

I also have Noticed that the Module scheduler not work. But there i have to Check the dev-mode.

Mykle1: I have to run off to work right now but I will “give it a go” as soon as I get home. I’ll let you know. Thanks for this.

I meant to get back to you, RedNax. It’s working nicely for me, and with the help of Strawberry, I’m running it twice. Once for just the current weather, under the clock, top center, and once for just the forecast, top right. Exactly the way I wanted it.

[bminer1]

@Mykle1 Can you share how you did this?

@strawberry-3.141 said in Throwing down the gauntlet:

if someone wants to achieve the same, actually there is the module wunderground twice (center and right), but once the forecast and the other time the current weather is hidden

.region.top.center .MMM-WunderGround table.small, //selector for forecast
.region.top.right .MMM-WunderGround table:not(.small), //selector for current weather
.region.top.right .MMM-WunderGround table.small td:nth-child(6) { //selector for rain amount
  display:none;
}

There you go. You got it from the source. (I was sleeping) Virtually every entry in my custom.css file is commented with

/* Thanks to Strawberry 3.141 */

[bminer1]

@strawberry-3.141 I tried this. No luck. The full data is in both top center and top left (i have mine on the other side and replaced “right” with “left”). I put the code in both the custom.css and the wunderground.css file. I think i am missing something.

[strawberry 3.141]

@bminer1 can you share your wunderground config

[bminer1]

@strawberry-3.141
Here is the Config:

{
		    module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
		    position: 'top_left',
		    config: {
		        apikey: '', // private; don't share!
		        pws: 'pws:KNJMOORE3', //Chester Ave
			hourly: '1',
		        fctext: '1',
		        fcdaycount: "9",
		        fcdaystart: "1",
		        hourlyinterval: "3",
		        hourlycount: "3",
		        alerttime: 30000,
		        alerttruncatestring: "english:",
			roundTmpDecs: '1',
		    	layout: "vertical",
			windunits: "mph",
			coloricon: true,
		    	sysstat: 0
		    		}
		},

[strawberry 3.141]

@bminer1 your config leads to a different layout

.region.top.left .MMM-WunderGround div.module-content > div > :not(table),
.region.top.center .MMM-WunderGround div.module-content > div > table {
	display: none;
}

[bminer1]

@strawberry-3.141 And that worked! I swear, i have no clue what we noobs would do without you.

Absolutely the best weather module out there. Hands down.
As someone who went to school for meteorology, weather runs deep in my veins. I know that we are already able to grab alerts from Wundergound, but is there a way to take those alerts further? I’m not sure if this would be an entirely new module, or just an additional feature.
The National Weather Service already sends out XML/RSS feeds all the way down to the county level. If there was a way to “watch” that feed and check for specific alerts, then make that show up on the mirror in red lettering (or something eye-catching) with an icon to go with it (thunderstorm, tornado, etc). Perhaps even scroll in a crawl like on TV news stations. Those XML files also contains specific parts. Title (Tornado Warning), description (Tornado Warning for Jefferson County until 9:45pm), and also narrative and preparedness statement. Finally, each XML file includes an expiration time.
I know that would take a lot of work, but it’s just something cool that could lead to more and more implementation over the long run. National Weather Service XML - Jefferson Co., KY

@c502 Thanks!

The initial xml doesn’t hold all the info:

This atom/xml feed is an index to active advisories, watches and warnings 
issued by the National Weather Service.  This index file is not the complete 
Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) alert message.  To obtain the complete CAP 
alert, please follow the links for each entry in this index.  Also note the 
CAP message uses a style sheet to convey the information in a human readable 
format.  Please view the source of the CAP message to see the complete data 
set.  Not all information in the CAP message is contained in this index of 
active alerts.

You’ll have to follow the links in the initial xml message to get the full info. You could probably use the newsfeed module as an initial startingpoint…
