MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast

[lxne]

Hello there,
We wanted to let you know about a change coming to Dark Sky. Beginning on March 31st, 2023 the Dark Sky API will no longer be available. To prepare, we encourage you to learn more about WeatherKit, a new Apple API available on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and web that provides access to the new Apple Weather forecast data.
You can learn more here.
As always, we appreciate your support, and will continue to update you with any future changes.

Thanks, The Dark Sky Team

So, is that going to be the API for Dark Sky to run on in 2023?

@plainbroke
no, it will be a different API

darksky API is dead

Great job, I like it very much, thanks for that.

I’ve had it running for about 8 weeks and I’ve noticed that my temperature readings are correct, but my weather is always showing as cloudy or rainy in advance, even though the sun has been shining 90% of the time for weeks and almost never rains

I checked the latitude and longitude several times and read them out and accepted them either via https://www.latlong.net/ or via google.

What can be the reason for the fact that I keep getting only clouds and rain, even though the sun is shining most of the time?

Place of residence is: Germany Hohenschambach
Width 49.039349
Longitude 11.847070

I hope you can help me here 😊
My English skills are not very good, I translated it with google, I hope you understand what I want to say 😊

@sil3ntstorm remove the quotes from around the lat/long… that makes then a string, not a number…

most modules cannot handle the difference

anyplace just numbers, remove quotes

Like now?
I did it but the clouds or rain are still displayed to me, no change from before. The 3 apps on the mobile all show sun most of the time and at least 10 hours of sun (just like in the past, always sunny and dry in the app and in real but always cloudy and rainy in the MM module)

@sil3ntstorm thats what the web site shows too

accuweather shows similar

[sil3ntstorm]

The data is read from https://home.openweathermap.org and displayed on the MM, right?
Since these often do not match for my area, I want to know whether it is possible to store another provider? For example
