Received my Weatherflow Tempest today after a long wait.

Lets hope for Homey support for this device in the near future 🙂

@Will_o_Wisp @alwin.k @Bulletcather - I made an attempt adding Tempest support and my quick and initial tests seem to work fine.

I have not yet created a pull request to the @Will_o_Wisp original repo as i plan more testing first. Just got the Tempest today 😉

But if you or anybody else would like to try, please install it via the CLI and give it a go. Here is the link to the feature/tempest branch of my forked repo:

Sounds great! 👍

Must say that i am impressed with the Tempest so far. Worth the long wait…

I will do some more testing with Homey+Tempest the next days, especially related to flows/events, and then create a pull-request to @Will_o_Wisp in a couple of days or so.

As you are i am equally impressed with my Tempest  
So one more happy guy  
If i can be of more help plse let me know

I have now made the pull-request with the Tempest support to @Will_o_Wisp repo. Hopefully he sees it in the near future.

Hey.  
Is this app getting better?  
Is it just to instal the weather station as a standard unit in a app now?

Hi, if you are talking about the Tempest it does still not work in the official app. I made a pull request but testing found that while working great with the Tempest it broke the old Sky/Air devices.

If you need Tempest support right now and can not wait you can install my fork linked to above using the CLI as a temporary solution and switch to the official in a couple of weeks or so.

@BufferOverflow  
Can it be that lightning figures aren’t processed correctly?  
This morning i saw some lightning on my Tempest but Homey shows 0  
Tried to upload some prints to show but did not manage  
This is the url of my Tempest

I would like to test it. I just got my Tempest yesterday, but I’m not sure how to install an application on Homey from Github.  
Where can I find instructions?  
Thx

Installing Node.js Check Node.js version on Homey: Homey App: Settings - General - About - Node.js version Download Node.js (use Homey’s version or higher) from [https://nodejs.org/](https://nodejs.org/) and install it on your computer. Download the app you want to install from GitHub Go to the repository on [GitHub](https://github.com/) (the correct link for the app you want to install is at the bottom…

I also got my tempest (europe). I have tried to use the app and it can’t find the Air nor the Sky unit. Do I need some kind of update for it to work? The Github thingy… will that be included in the app?

@BufferOverflow app works fine. Thanks!

Two questions though:

- the card ‘it starts to rain’, when is it reset? In other words, when do you get a new message that it has started to rain again? It has been dry for 15 minutes and then it started to rain again, but no new message.
- Very light rain is not recognized in the app as rain in mm. It stays at zero and does not get updated. Shouldn’t it at least say \>0.01 at that moment? In this way we can still create flows based on light rain.

Thanks again.
