NOAA v3 using too many requests?
-
Not me, sir. This picture represents the usage of 2 weather modules, MMM-NOAA3 and MMM-BMW-DS.
-
@Mykle1 are some people sharing keys?
-
I don’t know. That is certainly possible and it would definitely account for issue in this topic. I use my key in both modules and as you can see I don’t have such a problem.
-
I’m not sharing a key as far as I know. My usage just skyrocketed which was surprising. I switched from dark sky to another provider & all is well. Tomorrow I’ll get a new key from darksky and see what happens. Just seemed weird to me
-
Yeah, that’s a good idea. Let us know the result with the new key.
-
So the weather with weather underground hasn’t updated since yesterday. I looked at my stats and they were super high for yesterday. Seems the same as what happened before. Weird that random days trigger high requests.
Any thoughts? I’m going to switch back to darksky api to see what happens.
-
@motdog weather underground has been shutting down keys for over a year now. No new free keys are available. Time to switch to another weather solution.
-
@sdetweil Thanks for the heads up. Still curious about the spike in requests. Had that with darksky too which is why I switched to weather underground.
-
@motdog I had the same! Have you got a raspberry Pi? And is it locking up? I had this on mine it just kept dailing every second it was mad! Took off my Overclock that I had on the Pi and it’s working V well at the mo.
-
I’m just curious (and I may have missed this) but have you changed the
updateInterval: 30 * 60 * 1000,
This is designed to constrain the module to 48 calls per day. Also, as a long shot, are you running more than one weather module using the same API key? I do.
