Problems With Weather

Anybody know how to change celsius to Fahrenheit?

At the top of your config,js file, are your ‘units’ set to imperial?

var config = {
    address: "0.0.0.0",
    port: 8080,
    ipWhitelist: [], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
    language: "en",
    timeFormat: 12,
    units: "imperial",

@mykle1 Worked perfectly! Thank you! was just not sure where to find the units. Still having trouble to get the forecast displaying though. Any help on that?

I don’t use the default weather modules but I loaded up the weather forecast module and it errors, stating:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 401 (Unauthorized)
weatherforecast.js:261 weatherforecast: Your AppID does not support long term forecasts.

So, it looks like the appKey from open weather is the problem, or, the module is asking for data that is not available to holders of the free api.

Run your mirror by using npm start dev and see if that is the error you are getting

Correction, the module loads eventually but with only one day of weather, today.

This is with your config entry:

[brendan_c23]

@mykle1 Hourly forecast: unavailable
Daily forecast: unavailable
Calls per minute: 60
3 hour forecast: 5 days
It seems these are limits for the free API key I have now. Is there a way to tweak the code so it would be compatible? I tried the npm start dev, and got a couple errors popping up, will take picture and post on here

@brendan_c23 Current Weather

Minute Forecast 1 hour*

Actually, 7 day forecast should be available with the free API from openweathermap.org

You trying to run the mirror from the wrong folder. ENOENT error.

Start the mirror from within the MagicMirror directory

@mykle1 I am sorry Im a noob. How do I run the mirror from within the directory? cd MagicMirror?
