Question

Posted (edited)

This QuickApp can be used as your Fibaro Homecenter 3 Weather Provider (Settings - 6. General - Main - Main Devices - Weather Provider)
The Buienradar Weather QuickApp contains the current Dutch weather measurements, the weather forecast and the 5-day forecast 
The 5-days forecast is shown in the labels and the tomorrow forecast is shown in the child devices 
The current observations are measured by KNMI weather stations spread across The Netherlands and are updated every 10 minutes 
The weather report is updated several times a day by the Buienradar meteorologists

The QuickApp has child devices for:

  • Temperature °C 
  • Feel temperature °C 
  • Ground temperature °C 
  • Humidity % 
  • Absolute humidity g/m³
  • Airpressure hPa
  • Windspeed m/s 
  • Windspeed km/h
  • Winddirectiondegrees ° (plus wind direction and arrow)
  • Windspeed Bft
  • Windgusts km/h
  • Rain mm/h 
  • Rain Last 24h mm
  • Sunpower Watt/m²
  • Visibility km
  • Sunset (time)
  • Sunrise (time)
  • Sun Chance tomorrow % 
  • Min Temp tomorrow °C
  • Max Temp tomorrow °C
  • Rain Chance tomorrow % 
  • Min Rain tomorrow mm/h
  • Max Rain tomorrow mm/h
  • Wind tomorrow m/s (plus wind direction and arrow)
  • Wind tomorrow km/h (plus wind direction and arrow)

 

This QuickApp is plug-and-play. The only thing you can do, is change the Station ID to a weather-station nearby from the list or add some nice icons to the devices. 

 

  • Wind Chill (based on the JAG/TI-method) and is only valid for temperatures between -46 C and +10 C and is only valid for wind speed between 1.3 m/s and 49 m/s
  • Windspeed is shown in m/s (km/3.6)
  • Absolute humidity is the measure of water vapor (moisture) in the air, regardless of temperature. It is expressed as grams of moisture per cubic meter of air (g/m3) 
  • conditionCodes = {unavailable = 3200, clear = 32, rain = 40, snow = 43, storm = 38, cloudy = 30, fog = 20,}

    Still have some work to do with the weather conditions. 

     

    On top of the picture are all conditions with corresponding icon. On the left are the Buienradar weather descriptions. "c" is the current translation, "n" is the new translation. 

     

    Any suggestions are welcome.

    Hi @_Wilco_

     

    +1 means the next day.
     

    So you can anticipate for your, for example, watering the plants, mowing the grass, etc.

    I guess you also suffer from hay fever a lot, as I noticed you have multiple QA's for pollen ?. Is there one in particular, you would advise?

    Still get perfect stats from your app. Not sure if we should be very happy with it today. Exceptionally warm in a very short time for the Netherlands.

    Let's see how hot we get during the day!
