[APP][Pro] Knmi (Dutch weather, for Homey firmware v5 or above)

You’re welcome, André

I think the location has to be ‘forced’ by removing your address;
move the pointer to f.i. the U.S.;
Wait a bit and enter your address again

Its possible the “auto detect” function switch is placed somewhere else in the settings on the Pro 23 (Screenshot is from Pro 2019).

Homey Pro (Early 2023) has no automatic detection of location.

I think it might be a bug in 2023, if I select Amsterdam it works, I try Almere-stad it works but Almere-buiten doesn’t, for now I think Almere-stad is just fine :wink:

Question regarding “expected rain” (today / tomorrow / day after tomorrow).
Could it be that the field only shows expected rain PROBABILITY?
Not the expected amount in mm.

The fieldname doesn’t really tell and the values to me seem more like probability percentages.
E.g. currently I get 60 for tomorrow and 90 for the day after.
If that’s mm we better prepare the pumps :wink:

I would like to see mm for my plant watering automation.

Regards,
Steven

I found that the used API indeed only delivers probability.
Now querying https://data.meteoserver.nl/api/dagverwachting.php?locatie=Utrecht&key=xxxxxx directly to get total estimated rainfall for today.

Het weeralarm is dat lokaal of als er ergens in Nederland een alarm is.

Nu staat hier in Spijkenisse deze op 1 terwijl er alleen in Limburg geel voor onweer geldt.

De app heb ik een schop gegeven. :wink:

Edit
The weather alarm is that locally or if there is an alarm somewhere in the Netherlands.

Now here in Spijkenisse it is number 1, while yellow only applies to thunderstorms in Limburg.

I gave the app a kick. :wink:

Als dat helaas zo is Peter, dan heeft het niet veel zin meer om dat op mijn tijdlijn te zetten.

De waarschuwing gaan in het nieuws per provincie, vandaar mijn opmerking.

Edit
If that is unfortunately the case Peter, then there is not much point in putting that on my timeline.

The warning goes in the news per province, hence my comment.

So pls translate your msg. @Theo_de_Koning @Peter_Kawa

Sorry @Dijker, was more focus on KNMI as Dutch oriented.

Maybe I overlooked but does anyone know what numbers are available and what they stand for at [weeralarm] ?

1 alarm
0 no alarm

I would like to know the list of values used in the parameter/tag “Weerbeeld” in the KNMI app.

Where can I find the list of values?

Weer API KNMI live en verwachtingen | Het Weer in Nederland, search for “De weersgesteldheid”.

Just installed this app. However I don’t see any insight options. Does this mean insights are not supported? Or should I make a flow to store all data in variables? Or do I need to wait a day or so before stats show up?

Insights are not available for this app indeed.

It seems most of the values are exported to Influx and I can visualize them with Grafana. However not all variables are listed (like sunrise & sunset), so I need to dig a bit more why they are absent. Dashboard still needs a bit of work :slight_smile: .

Can anyone help me out, I can’t get the app/api to work anymore.

Last data I received is 10-12 days ago.

I removed the device, tried to add new device but I keep getting the message: “No valid response from weerlive, check your api key.”

I tried:

  • adding the api key again
  • restarting app
  • restarting homey
  • removing app and installing it again
  • making a new account on weer live (although old account ‘made 0 requests today’)

But I keep getting the same error message. Anyone any ideas?

From what you describe, I think you’d inform with Weerlive if there’s any API issues.

Hi ArtjeB
Same problem here, How does this manual-update-flow look like? I have a flow every 8 minutes “KNMI - haal nieuwe data” but does not help to update all the expected parameters.
