Hi @gabrielm9 ,
contribution is always welcome :-)

You have to compile the Typescript sources using npm run build.

Let me know, if you have problems. I‘m waiting for your PR

Hi @gabrielm9,

the latest version 2.5.x supports different color schemes now.

Hi @jalibu,

Thanks very much! I was about to spend time figuring it out how to variabalize the code but I’ve learned from what you did. I would have taken me a week to figure it out :slightly_smiling_face:. The wife thanks you as well.

I’m using the dark map referenced above on a black background but every time the module changes zoom level it fills with a white background until the new map tiles populate. It’s worst when zooming out,
Does anyone know if it there is a parameter I can change so the blank tiles between zoom levels stay black?

This is a minor annoyance with an otherwise great module.
Thank you!

try to add this to your custom.css

.MMM-RAIN-MAP .leaflet-container {
  background: #000;
}

this is the current rain situation and I don’t understand the differences, first picture your module, second one https://www.wetteronline.de/regenradar .

And the second one is reality …

@karsten13 Unfortunately, I can’t tell you that. I am only responsible for the display layer, not for the weather data :-)
The radar layers come from the Rainviewer API, which I have actually had quite good experiences with in the past.
Is it the usual case on your mirror that the displayed radar images do not match the reality?

What I can see is that RegenRadar.de and RainViewer have different scales. With RainViewer it needs a much higher degree of cloudiness to be displayed on the map.

saw such differences this week the first time

will oberve this but the differences are heavy and AFAIS not only explainable with the different scales. Meanwhile I was already asking myself if the rain layer is showing a total different location …
