What css do I do to change color of the slash in H/L in “extraCurrentConditions” ?

Yes:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .temperature-container .temperature-separator,
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .forecast-container .forecast-item .temperature-container .temperature-separator {
  color: #FF0000; /* makes it red */
}

  display: none;
}

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

I’d like to see this too. The DarkSky API had this and it’s the one thing I really miss with switching over to OpenWeather. My guess is that in order to do this I’d need to create a special formatter that generates a detailed summary based on the weather data available. Say the API returned a wind speed of over 10mph, gusts reaching 30mph… I could generate a phrase like “It’s windy today with gusts reaching 30mph.”

This looks like a significant time commitment that I just don’t have. I would need to come up with all of the thresholds of the weather data that would trigger such phrases, create phrase templates, choose how they should be ordered, and then worry about translation for all of the languages MM supports. As it is I barely have an hour or two on the weekend to dedicate answering forum questions on this module and fixing any bugs.

If anyone else is willing to do this, I’d gladly welcome the pull request into my code.

The best my module can currently do to address your ask is to configure the module to only show the current conditions and the extra current conditions (which give you the summary in icon/metric format). You can turn off the hourly and daily forecasts if you like. Take a look through the README.md file with outlines all of the configuration options for this module.

@j-e-f-f - Thanks for responding. I wasn’t sure if this was something their API auto-configured or not. I didn’t mean to ask so much work of you but thought there might be a part of their API I missed. I just last night managed to get what I needed with a really basic “(Description) currently. The high will be (high temp) and the low will be (low temp.”

Thank you for all your work on this. You saved me a ton of time by using your module as a base.

hi… how can I get the C for Celsius behind the degree, on my mirror I only have the number …

Actually, I’d like the F for F#@(%**&@ stupid measurements, for mine too.

@stoffbeuteluwe In the custom.css i added the following:


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

You can change “C” to “F” if needed depending on which units you want to use.

    content: "C";
}

You can change “C” to “F” if needed depending on which units you want to use.

There’s actually a slight bug in this. The CSS should be as follows (notice he removal of the sapce between the period and class names in a few places):

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

One question about this, how do you get the weather warnings from the DWD displayed in German? The language is set to German “de” but these messages are displayed in English.

Unfortunately I have not found anything.

P.S. Sorry for my English :confused_face:
