Nubes (Cloud in Latin)

Most weather apps hand you a number. Nubes hands you the sky. It is a dashboard widget that fetches the latest Meteosat images from EUMETSAT’s public map service and plays them back as a loop, so instead of reading “70% cloud cover” you watch the front actually rolling in off the Atlantic.

Pick your window the whole continent, France, the British Isles, Iberia, Scandinavia, Italy and the Balkans, or a tight frame centred on your own Homey — and choose how far back to run it: one hour for a passing shower, twenty-four for the shape of the entire day.

Three views come with it. Geo Colour looks natural in daylight and still shows cloud through the night, infrared is there when you care about cloud tops, and true colour gives you the plain daytime picture. Coastlines and borders can be drawn over the top, and a small marker shows where you are plotted on the tile itself, never sent anywhere.

Voici les cinq réglages, avec les libellés anglais tels qu’ils sont dans le manifeste.

## Nubes — “Europe from space” widget settings

| Setting | Type | Default | Options |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Area**  
Which part of Europe to show. | Dropdown | All of Europe | All of Europe · Western Europe · France · British Isles · Iberian Peninsula · Central Europe · Italy and the Balkans · Scandinavia · **Around my Homey** |
| **Picture type**  
Day and night colour is readable at any hour. Infrared shows clouds even in the dark. True colour goes black at night. | Dropdown | Day and night colour | Day and night colour · Infrared · True colour |
| **Animation**  
Loop through the most recent pictures to see the clouds move. Long periods use a wider time step, so the loop stays about twenty pictures. | Dropdown | Last 3 hours | Off · Last hour · Last 3 hours · Last 6 hours · Last 12 hours · Last 24 hours |
| **Coastlines and borders**  
Draw coastlines and country borders over the picture. | Checkbox | On | — |
| **Mark my Homey**  
Show a dot where your Homey is. Your position stays on your Homey. | Checkbox | On | — |
| Nubes | | | |

“Around my Homey” builds the frame around your own position rather than using a fixed box, so the marker sits dead centre whether you are in Andalusia or in Lapland.

### No devices, no Flow cards

Nubes is a widget and nothing else. There is nothing to pair and nothing to wire into a Flow. If that turns out to be a shame, tell me below a “new picture available” trigger is the obvious first candidate.

### No API key

The imagery comes from a **public European service** , EUMETView, run by EUMETSAT. The app asks it for one picture at a time and no faster than the satellites make them, which is every ten minutes. Nothing about your home leaves your Homey: the position marker is drawn on the tile itself.

This service is based on EUMETSAT Meteosat data.

### Languages

English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch.

### Reporting a problem

Post here with your Homey firmware version, the app version, and which Area and Picture type you had selected. A screenshot of the tile helps more than a description and if the image looks stale, the widget says so in orange with its age, and that age is the useful clue.

Feedback and testers welcome.

Have fun 😉

**Cloud Cover Europe 1.0.7**

First, for anyone wondering what happened to Nubes: it is the same app, it is now called Cloud Cover Europe, and nothing on your side needs to change.

 ![widgets](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/5/e526fdde2b3236b13faea4f35ffc56e3f699a240.jpeg)

This version is about manners. The satellite tile now sits next to your other tiles without looking like a guest from another dashboard.

- **One layout for all tiles.** On **Europe from space** , that means “Satellite image” and the name of the area at the top, the picture in the middle, and a footer with play/pause, the time of the picture and the EUMETSAT credit, still in full.
- **The title tells the truth.** If you chose Around my Homey and your Homey has no location set, the tile shows All of Europe instead, and its title now says All of Europe rather than the area you asked for.

Nothing else moves. You still choose an Area (from All of Europe down to France, the British Isles or Scandinavia, or Around my Homey), a Picture type and how much Animation you want. Coastlines and borders and Mark my Homey can each be turned on or off, and the Background is Deep blue, Slate, Plum, Forest or Sand.

The tile takes the height of the picture for the area you pick, so a wide area and a tall one each keep their natural shape instead of being squeezed into the same box.

If an area looks wrong, or you would like another one, reply here with the area and a screenshot.
