MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast

@biebermann There isn’t a solution. The alerts come through as-is. There seems to be no logic in place on OpenWeather’s side to return the alerts in the configured language.

Ok, then there is nothing we can do for the time being.
Is that ever fixed?

@biebermann it’s something I can’t fix. It’s a problem with OpenWeather’s API. Someone previously mentioned that OpenWeather had acknowledged it was an issue and maybe it will be fixed in the future. But the alerts don’t have a language identifier associated with them so it’s not even like I could filter out the duplicates in the wrong language.

@biebermann A workaround would be to additionally use MMM-DWD-WarnWeather which works pretty well.

Another option could be to run the warning through the google-translate npm module which you could add to the module.

Might be a bit much however.

Don’t stress, if it’s not possible to correct it (yet) then so be it.

@lavolp3
I had the module running, thought since it is in this module here, I could save myself another module.

Is there then the possibility to turn off the severe weather warnings completely?

I used a css “hack” for that

Add to custom.css

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

You can also set showSummary: false in the config but would then lose the whole summary

Thank you, it can be so simple when you come to it.

After updating to the newest version and MagicMirror 2.15 too, the UV-index produces an extra line.

How is that possible to have every icon in the same line?

Probably not the most elegant solution ever, but I added the following jquery code to the index.html located in the MagicMirror folder which will check every 30 seconds for the text “There” in elements of the class "weather-alert-description " and will hide the parent element (so the whole thing) if found.

Since the English alerts usually start with “There” I can hide them this way and only leave the German ones

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script>
	setInterval(function(){ 
		$('.weather-alert-description').each(function () {
			  if ($(this).text().includes('There')) {
				$(this).parent().hide();
			  }
		})
	}, 30000);
</script>
