MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast

Hello,

It is somehow possible to show the unit of measurement for the temperature (in my case, “C” for Celsius) ?

Thank you.

@j-e-f-f Last thing is it possible to just get the red to display and nothing else? Yea that’s right it’s FN 69 out here in NJ!

concerning the duplicate weather alerts and mix up between german and english I got an answer from openweathermap.org:

Currently we receive data in such format from the provider. The development team is working on the new version of alerts, which should eliminate such behavior.

Yes. You can do that in your custom.css file.

For the big current temperature display:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .current-conditions-wrapper .current.temperature:after {
    content: "C";
}

In the extra current conditions Hi/Lo display:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .extra-current-conditions-wrapper  . temperature-container . high-temperature:after,
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .extra-current-conditions-wrapper  . temperature-container . low-temperature:after {
    content: "C";
}

In the hourly forecast items:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .forecast-item.hourly .temperature-container:after {
    content: "C";
}

In the daily forecast Hi/Lo display:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .forecast-item.daily .high-temperature:after,
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .forecast-item.daily .low-temperature:after {
    content: "C";
}

In all of the examples above, whatever you specify for content will be displayed. So if you wanted F for Fahrenheit, you would specify content: "F";

Yes, you can do this in your custom.css file.

To hide the description and alert source:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-description,
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-source {
    display: none;
}

To change the size of the red title text:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-title {
   font-size: 17px; /* adjust this */
}

alternatively, to change the size of the alert icon:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert {
    background-size: 30px 26px;  /* width height */
    background-position: 6px 10px;  /* top left */
}

If you change the size of the icon, you may want to adjust the title padding as well:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-title {
  padding-left: 36px; /* adjust this */
}

EVERYTHING is in this module has a CSS class applied to it so you can tailor every last little bit to your specific needs. Take a look at MMM-OpenWeatherForecast.css for existing CSS rules and mmm-openweather-forecast.njk to see what classes have been applied to which UI elements.

Just a quick thanks for the module !

I’m looking to see if I can get just a truncated text-based description of the upcoming weather.

When I search for a location on the openweathermap.org site, I do see the site gathers this data “Heavy intensity rain. Moderate breeze. The high will be 68°F, the low will be 50°F.”, which is exactly what I’m looking to display on my mirror, but I don’t see how this might be communicated via the API.

On OWM’s page, I don’t even see this data provided in the sample API calls provided. Is there a way for your module to provide this data or does this require one of the paid APIs? Thank you for all of the effort you’ve put into this.

So I am working on two mirrors. The first set up this module with no problem I created a new api key for the second mirror and when the forecast shows, its missing a day. Today is Friday but when I use this config, the first date showing up in the forecast is Sunday. Makes no sense.

Help please

	{
			  module: "MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast",
			  header: "Kansas City Weather",
			  position: "top_right",
			  classes: "default everyone",
			  disabled: false,
			  config: {
			    apikey: "xxxxxxxxxxx",
			    latitude: "39.0997",
			    longitude: "94.5786",      
			    iconset: "5c",
		            concise: false,
			    maxDailiesToShow: 5,
			    showHourlyForecast: false,
			    forecastLayout: "table"
  }
},

Big thanks to you,sir !

@j-e-f-f here is my config and see the picture, I would like to only see the alert in red and the first line “elevated risk of wildfire”. That doable? Sorry for all the questions on this I’m trying to work the problem.

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-description {
    display: 1;
},
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-source {
    display: none;
},
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-description {
  -webkit-line-clamp: 2; /* adjust this as desired */
}
