Weather Underground (WUnderground)

The wunderground platform uses Weather Underground as an source for current weather information.

Obtain WUnderground API here. Free account allows 500 requests per day or 10 per minute.

To add Wunderground to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

Configuration variables:

• api_key (Required): See above
• pws_id (Optional): You can enter your PWS id. Current list of Wunderground PWS stations is available here. If you do not enter the PWS ID, the current location information (latitude and longitude) from your configuration.yaml will be used to display weather conditions.
• monitored_conditions array (Required): Conditions to display in the frontend. The following conditions can be monitored.
  • weather: A human-readable text summary with picture from Wunderground.
  • temp_f: Current temperature in Fahrenheit
  • temp_c: Current temperature in Celsius
  • station_id: Your personal weather station (PWS) ID
  • feelslike_c: Feels like (or apparent) temperature in celsius
  • feelslike_f: Feels like (or apparent) temperature in Fahrenheit
  • feelslike_string: Text summary of how the current teperature feels like
  • heat_index_c: Heat index (combined effects of the temperature and humidity of the air) in Celsius
  • heat_index_f: Heat index (combined effects of the temperature and humidity of the air) in Fahrenheit
  • heat_index_string: Text summary of current heat index
  • dewpoint_c: Temperature in celsius below which water droplets begin to condense and dew can form
  • dewpoint_f: Temperature in fahrenheit below which water droplets begin to condense and dew can form
  • dewpoint_string: Text summary of dew point
  • wind_kph: Current wind speed in kph
  • wind_mph: Current wind speed in mph
  • UV: Current levels of UV radiation. See here for explanation.
  • pressure_in: Atmospheric air pressure in inches
  • pressure_mb: Atmospheric air pressure in millibars
  • wind_dir: Wind direction
  • wind_string: Text summary of current wind conditions
  • relative_humidity: Reltive humidity
  • visibility_mi: Average visibility in miles
  • visibility_km: Average visibility in km
  • precip_today_in: Total precipitation in inches
  • precip_today_metric: Total precipitation in metric units
  • precip_today_string: Text summary of precipitation today
