Yet Another Weather Driver (but for Edge!)

Have you looked into incorporating the lightning data from the Tempest API?

It’s one of those things I used through IFTTT and I would love it if I could create routines based on lightning nearby. I didn’t see any mention of lightning data in the thread

Worked for about a month and a half then suddenly stopped a week ago taking data from api.weather.com. I collected debug data from edgebridge and it reported the following data for the current weather from my PWS:

{“observations”:[{“stationID”:“XXXXXXXXXXXX”,“obsTimeUtc”:“2024-11-29T03:04:44Z”,“obsTimeLocal”:“2024-11-28 22:04:44”,“neighborhood”:“XXXXXXXX”,“softwareType”:null,“country”:“US”,“solarRadiation”:null,“lon”:-81.371,“realtimeFrequency”:null,“epoch”:1732849484,“lat”:28.542,“uv”:null,“winddir”:23,“humidity”:85,“qcStatus”:0,“imperial”:{“temp”:71,“heatIndex”:72,“dewpt”:67,“windChill”:71,“windSpeed”:0,“windGust”:0,“pressure”:29.88,“precipRate”:0.00,“precipTotal”:0.00,“elev”:103}}]}

and for the future weather:

Update Dec 1 8:15am, the PWS got through once, and now we are stuck on another set of values. The predicted weather remains with content from Nov 21st. Assumption: need to look at the data parser for the edge driver.
