      I’ve hit a wall on getting the hourly forecast to work.
      It seems straightforward, instead of /forecast I use forecast/hourly but it just wont go.
      I went to weather.gov site and I can find stuff about gridpoints and following their instructions get a result.
      The other part and where I am way over my head is I ran across some lines that say something to effect that api.weather.gov/points/forecast/hourly are deprecated where api.weather.gov/points/forecast is not.
      I’m stuck

        @ankonaskiff17 you use /forecast
        that is the only choice

        weatherEndpoint: “/forecast”

        The hourly type is currently only implemented 
        for the OpenWeatherMap provider, and only 
        when /onecall is used as the specified endpoint.
        

        so
        type:“hourly”,
        weatherEndpoint:“/onecall”,
        weatherProvider:“openweathermap”

          @sdetweil So for time being its best to stick with Current Weather module that I already have up and running on different device. I can just copy/paste and be done with it since it works using openweathermap.

            @ankonaskiff17 FWIW, the weathergov “forecast/current” loaded at some point… I posted message about last evening about hitting wall. Quit for the day and powered down monitor which I just turned on and it was up and running. I’ve rebooted and it is in that “Loading…” mode similar to what was resolved on the forecast module. I started stopwatch to see how long it takes to load. Surprised me that’s for sure. I was sitting there looking at it for a couple of minutes before it sank in to my brain.

                @sdetweil I understand that. It had “loading” displayed when I went to bed but when I got up forecast/current had loaded and was displaying the current forecast.
                So in some respect weathergov forecast/current was functional,
