@@BeardedTinker Yes, it's exactly what you need if you have your own weather station, which I do. I set it up already and have my data combined with a forecast, rather than two separate cards.
My problem is Met-Office data has forecast in day/night cycle so if I set weather card to show the forecast for the number of days then it shows double entries for days ie. Mon, Mon, Tue, Tue etc. Not sure how to construct template to pick every second entry from the forecast list.
Not really, it depends on other sensors. It should update weather template when they update. Maybe try to update sensor (refresh rate) that is providing data to Weather sensor. That's the only thing I can think of.
Not sure if I got it right but for name you can set anything you want. Other than that, just use existing sensors for other sensors (temperature, humidity, forecast etc).
These are icons that arrive with AddOn version of VSCode. When I was using VSCode in Docker, I downloaded two icon packs: Material Design Icons Intellisense & vscode-icons. I think one of those enabled it too.
Very useful. I will try this method. The problem are DarkSky and acuweather do not offer a free api key. Can you give an advice about some weather station compatible with HA?
Thank you Enric! For AccuWeather, you can get free API key. I'm using it. Dark Sky unfortunately not any more and will probably be removed completely by the end of the year (as Apple bought them). I'm using very old LaCross 2300 weather station (it has internal sensors, and external temperature, humidity, wind and rain sensors). It's a bit tricky to setup, but... Data I have is shared with Wunderground - and then I use community integration with Wunderground to pull back this data in Home Assistant. A bit of strange setup, but it's (still) working. I haven't tested anything other than that, but there are some external weather sensors that use 433MHz frequency that can bi directly pulled in HA. I've seen this on HA Community Forums.
@@EnricAragorn Netatmo Weather Stations might be worth a look. They're not cheap, but they are incredibly easy to setup. The downside I have found is that the wireless connection is not very strong, so the external sensors cannot be very far away (10 meters maybe if you are lucky) from the base station.
Lovely! Just created your card with sensors from my Davis Vantage Pro + station. Thanks!!
Great Job and and thank you for contributing to the community
Thank you very very much!! Glad you like it!
saw a few videos about. you're the best. born lecturer.
Thank you Tomasz! Really much appreciated!
Tack!
Thank you Patrik very much 😃
Love this! Did not know it was possible to create your own weather card from multiple sources.
This really helps if you have for example your own weather station or some sensors while you can still pull the forecast out of external source

Great video again. Thank you. A quick question can you make the weather services update more often, At the moment mine seem to do it every6-8 hours.

That's the only thing I can think of.
@@BeardedTinker thank you
How did you determine the template names for the sources? Are they of your own choice and then displayed as you choose?
Not sure if I got it right but for name you can set anything you want.
Other than that, just use existing sensors for other sensors (temperature, humidity, forecast etc).
Thanks for the video. Bin wondering how to add my own temperature in to a card. Thanks
Glad this helped! Thanks for the comment Adi!
@@BeardedTinker No problem happy to help with the algorithm ( -8
how did you get the HA style icons next to the file names in VS code?

@@BeardedTinker I need something simple. Maybe the best way is to buy an Wunderground compatible, and get it strait with my station id code. Thanks!
@@EnricAragorn for me this is win-win - I help provide data for local weather model, but also use it myself.
