Strange weather bug?
-
I tried using the same or different APIs but it seems that the mirror is not updating the data from the openweathermap as often as it should. Sometimes it updates only forecast but current temp stays the same all day. When I close and start MM again it all loads OK but it can not update on its own very often. Can not say how often, because I can not see any error messages in logs. The same happends on RPi 3 and my old RPi 2 running borh at the same time. One has current temp of 12 degrees and the other says 25. But when I restart them they display 27. So none is right. Can someone suggest anything? It is not the timezone problem, because after restart it shows everything OK, it is not the lack of internet connection, because calendar syncs OK.

I’m having the same problem. Sometimes the current weather doesn’t update (or it updates very rarely), but it works when i restart with ‘pm restart mm’.

Thanks for that info. This confirms my observations. I used cron to schedule RPi restart 2 times a day, so there is a chance for it to refresh properly at least twice.
-
The only time I have seen my rpi not update either of the weather stats was if there was a communication error at any given request, however it always picked up at the next update. So this is a bit baffling to me … have either of you guys notice any errors anywhere, whether in npm, pm2, or the console?

PM2 nope but others I do not know how to check. Any guide would be nice. I am a noob at this

I’m having the same issue. Total NOOB here as I just installed MM last night. Got up this morning and noticed the current weather is correct, but the forecast still starts at yesterday.
I’ve restarted MM via PM2 several times for other updates, I have not done a reboot of the Pi (Pi3) yet to see if that resolves the issue. I do have the locale and timezone set correctly.
The current date and time show correctly above my calendar.
Tried running ‘pm2 log mm’ but so far it’s just sitting there with no output.
I’m using the default weather apps, may try switching to WU apps to see if I have the same issue.
TIA
OK, so in my config.js file, for location, I had my current city/state. I changed it “Memphis, US” (closest “big” city) and retarted MM2. The forecast module updated. So, so just a thought, make sure the site you are pulling the forecast from has the correct city/state/country?

I’m joining the club in having the same issue with weather not updating. In my mirror it’s only the weather forecast that is updating. The current temperature is stale and have been so since I last restarted the mirror app.
