Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

I have seen, that you adjusted forecast_table.css col-sun and col-moon to 95px. in version v3.4.0b10. My own test showed, that 65px would be enough. Anyway, still 65px broadens the table in a way, that the complete web site does not fit onto a mobile screen. Thus, the graphs are cut at the

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

Well, at least it looks pretty same with WU forecasts now. And, yes, there are still some cosmetic corrections, such as the different views on the same html file, when nothing else is changed but the orientation from horizontal to vertical. Today I detected another (cosmetic) misbehavior in

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

I’ll continue to look for what that number should be. There does not appear to be an equivalent for NWS. Either a rain line appears or not in the NWS forecast downloaded. Having said that, I’m OK with changing 0 to 20, as you have done. I’ll push that. > On Aug 26, 2020, at 11:38 AM,

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

And, I just modified forecast.py at line 2563, and changed "0" to "20": if precip_chance > 20 and (precip_type == 'rain' or precip_type == 'snow'): Now, only rain icons are shown, when precipitation chance is above 20%. It looks like the example at sailing.mit.edu, as linked above. I am

Thanks for your copy of the skin. I visited Matthew's wiki today, because I was wondering, that the link to an image there did not work anymore. Indeed, most of the images there are broken. Bad news, because I found the table presentation very impressive. But then I followed his link to

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

I did make a change to better align the header icons on the single strip. That’s something I did a long time ago for my copy when I integrated it into my skin. You’ll have to download it by choosing Code -> Download ZIP from the main page as I didn’t do a release for it. For your requests,

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

When looking at single-strip.html from the sampler, there are only the cloud icons, but no precipitation icons. So it is not completely comparable with forecast_table. Besides, an there is an empty line below the wind (km/h) line, which I guess to be for gust data. But WU does not provide

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

Ok, I understand (hopefully). Meanwhile I have an update to v3.4.0b8, where I could see, that precipitation is in a separate column next to POP. So, you divide the WU icon set into two separate sets, one for cloud cover, and one for precipitation. That is a little bit more complex and needs

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

WU_SKY_DICT is for cloud cover. What you are proposing is simply not a good fit for this extension. I won’t be creating these new icons. Having said that, there is definitely information to be gathered from the iconCode. Using that code, I can get many more precipitation types which can be

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

That’s good news. The forecast extension relies on coercing the various forecast to a standard representations that is stored in a common schema. As such, supporting arbitrary icons would not fit in with the scheme. WU does provide precipType and precipChance. precipType can be rain, snow or

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

You are right! I assumed, that the forecast would be downloaded immediately after installing and restarting. Now, three hours later, the cloud column is completely filled and all is correct. Great job! So, what about the idea to use the complete set of icons, including day/night versions?

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

Actually, the most likely problem is that you didn’t wait for a new WU forecast to be downloaded after installing and restarting. That won’t happen until at least three hours after the last forecast. Before you do what I asked below, please check these reports again. Do they not look

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

What a pity, so the solution for clouds is not that trivial. hope, you will find it. And thanks for the hint for setting interval. I was afraid, that WU will stop delivering because of too many requests. 3 hours look ok for me. I don't think, that forecasting is such a capriciously changing

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

To inactivate dewpoint, I thought to delete (or comment out) the line in forecast-table.inc: ## Now assign the values that will actually be used .. #set $show_dewpoint = int($local_settings.get('show_dewpoint', $show_dewpoint)) or is it better to inactivate it in multiple-tables.html.tmpl

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

Yes, I concluded that WU does not provide a dew point nor wind gust when I wired it up. I would remove the columns in your copy of these files (since you have copied them to another skin). I have modified various files when I copied them to another skin at https://www.paloaltoweather.com/

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather forecast inside the weewx standard skin seasons

As your incorporating this into your Seasons skin, it makes sense to remove (from the .inc files) the data that is not provided by WU (e.g., dew point). You should have a look at what’s coming back from WU by using the following URL (assuming you are using the default–station’s lat/long–for the
