Feature request cloudcover scenes


Question

Posted

Hi everyone,

I am not sure if this is the correct place for my request. Or maybe my question is already resolved by someone before me. Apologies if that is the case, I did try to search first.

 

In general I am very happy with HC3. It is easy to create scenes. One issue I do have is the option to distinguish between cloudcovers. I would like to have the option to choose running a scene on the amount of clouds. For example in meteorological forecasts and reports there is the mention of Few, Broken or/and Overcast; indicating the amount of clouds.

 

This would be helpful to me when running the scenes for the screens in front of the windows. 

 

Thanks in advance!

You could use the QuickApp for OpenWeather, it has a child device with Cloud percentage.

with LUA scene, you might check the property (when using YrWeather) conditioncode, and make scenes based on it

Like this conditionCodes = {unavailable = 3200, clear = 32, rain = 40, snow = 43, storm = 38, cloudy = 30, fog = 20,} ?

OWM is not always give the correct % of clouds sometimes they miss it complete so you need to create alternative for in case.

I use % Clouds and correction for months to open/close curtains.

Succes,

i see you are using already proper values, in the default weather QA they still wrong.

 

Btw, these are not the only codes, there are more icons available, /assets/icon/weather/normal-set/1.svg

The full set of icons is:

1->18, 19d, 19n, 20,21,22d,22n,23->36, 37d,37n,38d,38n,39d,39n,40->44,45d,45n,46d,46n,47d,47n,3200

 

Last time yrWeather  was broken, Fibaro simply fixed it asap to give us something working, but not implemented all codes into to it (yet).

However, we can do it anyway if we need more nice icons displayed

    it isn’t a fail, it is just a way that doesn’t work ?

    Easiest way turned out to be to download the plugin of

    Please login or register to see this link.

    . Enable in the plugin (devices/Openweather Provider/ Edit & Preview) the device "cloud cover" and add this "device" to a block scene. Then you can activate a scene with a percentage of cloud cover.
