[APP][Pro] WeatherFlow's Smart Weather Station

I hope there will be a successor because this solution is very straightforward. Btw anyone knows how many installations this app has?

Sorry, I quoted a post from the dev Joel;
to read the actual post, you should hit the blue colored text, or the :heavy_check_mark: or :arrow_up: next to it on the right :wink:
Another indicator is the avatar (which is not mine)ā€¦

Is this still working? Itā€™s not finding my Tempest station at all. Not sure if Iā€™m missing a step or not.

Yes, still working. No problems at all.

I donā€™t know that either. Perhaps you could describe in more detail what you have tried so far.

Check if itĀ“s in the same (sub)network as your homey. If not it wonĀ“t be found

Yep, theyā€™re on the same subnet and should be able to see each other.

Iā€™ve installed the app. Go to the devices screen and tap on + to add a new device and select Smart Weather, then Tempest, then Connect. It shows the ā€œSearching for devicesā€¦ā€ for a while and then says nothing was found. Both the Homey and Tempest Hub are on the same network, so Iā€™m not sure what else to try.

Deactivate the 5 GHz WLAN network, let Homey connect to the 2.4 GHz and then try to add the weather station again.
You may also need to restart the router, Homey and the weather station.

Does anybody know if itā€™s possible to change the wind speed and distance etc. to mph instead of km/h?

Thanks

Good question.

Pity there is no settings for choosing what us best for you.

I would love to seen m/s, meters per second, what is used in Sweden.

is the app match with this product ? Tempest Home Weather Station

Thinking about ordering tempesr weather station, they now offer deliveries to Europe also, but the app was updates 4 years ago? So future of this integration with Homey doesnā€™t look too good.

Is this still working?

Can you get measurements in metric system?

Hello,
There is app Smart Weather Station - adds support for WeatherFlowā€™s Smart Weather Station

but

WeatherFlows now offers only different unit: Tempest Weather System

is that unit also compatible to Homey Pro 2023 ?

Petr

Please have a look at the description of the app in the Homey app-store, there is a description of what is supported.

Therefore moved to that ropic

I use the Tempest in the UK and it is very good, Iā€™ve used it for several years and with Homey for quite a while now. It is very reliable, gives you loads of info which can be used in many flows. Well worth the investment.

@Darrell_Etherington are you using the UK purchased Tempest Weather Station, (the latest one) and is it fully supported by the WeatherFlow App ?

Looks like it has not been updated for 4 years, which concerns me it may not cover UK version fully.

Thanks.

It is a UK version and I use the Smart Weather station App that fully supports the Tempest. Iā€™ve not used every trigger but there is a fair selection available, see screen shot below:

All my daily Hue lighting is triggered by outside Lux rather than sunrise/sunset, and curtains/blinds which makes it much more accurate. Alexa announces if raining and garage left open etc. Ice warnings given when getting up in morning if below zero, garage door closes if left open and high winds plus a few other bits and pieces. All works well, weather station is rock solid, never needs rebooting and if you do have any questions the guys out in America are very helpful.

Agreed, the app not been updated for a while but Iā€™ve not had any issues so far and been using this for a long time and proves useful as the trigger or input for many flows.

Cheers

Many thanks Darrell, just what i wanted to knowā€¦ and like the garage doors idea !

Andrew

One last question @Darrell_Etherington do you use the Wi-Fi hub with it or does it connect direct to Homey ?
