I definitely would not want a dumbed down version in terms of capabilities. I don't think there has to be a trade-off between that and easing the path for beginners.

I totally agree, and apparently, hopefully, that is what UD is in the process of doing.

In the posts on the announcement regarding this (to which I am unable to reply despite being logged in), it says that the new administrative console will be web-based. Will it, hopefully, also be available locally for those instances where Internet communication is down or poor? Also, will we be able to continue using the existing administrative console until the new one is fully compatible with Z-Wave?

Got it. Thanks. You are right, the data at the URL does match what I'm seeing. And since you and I are seeing the same thing at our different locations (this afternoon it is still 20% for today followed by all zeros), and since it doesn't match my other weather data, it sounds like OpenWeatherMap itself is having a problem. Thank you for your time, attention, and assistance.

Interesting, today my Administrative Console is showing the same predictions as yours: 20% today followed by 0% for the remaining days. I am not seeing a URL buried in my debug log, but I am getting some seemingly strange lines including the following: 2024-07-13 14:24:40.933 Thread-2 udi_interface WARNING owm:parameterHandler: Please enter a valid API key 2024-07-13 14:24:40.936 Thread-2 udi_interface WARNING owm:parameterHandler: Please enter a valid location 2024-07-13 14:25:17.521 Thread-6 udi_interface.interface WARNING interface:db_getNodeDrivers: forecast_0 not found in database. 2024-07-13 14:25:19.531 Thread-6 udi_interface.interface WARNING interface:db_getNodeDrivers: forecast_1 not found in database. 2024-07-13 14:25:21.510 Thread-4 udi_interface.interface WARNING interface:db_getNodeDrivers: forecast_2 not found in database. 2024-07-13 14:25:21.543 Thread-6 udi_interface.interface WARNING interface:db_getNodeDrivers: forecast_3 not found in database. 2024-07-13 14:25:23.515 Thread-4 udi_interface.interface WARNING interface:db_getNodeDrivers: forecast_4 not found in database. 2024-07-13 14:25:23.564 Thread-6 udi_interface.interface WARNING interface:db_getNodeDrivers: forecast_5 not found in database. My full debug log is attached. debug.log

Interestingly, after installing 4.0.2 my chance of rain today is now 18%, which has a certain ring to it (comparing to the 1800% I received under 4.0.1). My two weather channels are both predicting about 10%. And, again, the remaining days in my predictions are all zero compared to Weather Channel and Weather Underground predictions ranging from 5% to 10% over the next six days.

Perhaps OpenWeatherMap has changed something. They used to match reasonably closely to the percentages I got from The Weather Channel and Weather Underground. Anyway, thank you for checking.

Installed 4.0.1. Chance of rain on Forecast0 (today) is now 1800%. All days thereafter are 0%.

Attached is a partial screenshot 2024-07-12_18-15-01.pdf

When I go to install at the store, it is telling me that it is still version 4.0.0.

No matter what the chance of rain from other weather forecasts, the forecast for each of the next six days in OpenWeatherMap always shows zero (0). My temperature prediction seems to match well with other weather forecasts. This appears to have been consistently true for the last 3 to 4 weeks, ever since I updated to version 4.0.0.

Got it. Thanks. Everything is working fine right now, and hopefully it will stay that way, but if I encounter the problem again I will send you the full log package. Thanks again. Ed

Attached is the debug log. It only goes back to 2024-06-16 16:38:33. I assume that is because that is when I reinstalled OpenWeatherMap to see if that would solve the problem. The log appears to indicate that OpenWeatherMap connected at 16:38, but that does not correspond to what was shown in the Administrative Console. The log also indicates that it connected at 17:00, and that corresponds to the time when I received the notification indicating there was a successful connection. debug.log

Addendum: my Administrative Console has now reconnected. And I now see that I have a great many notifications on my UD Mobile app for today, June 12, and June 9, showing OpenWeatherMap being repeatedly disconnected and then reconnected. I don't have any such messages for any other nodes or plug-ins. Any idea where this issue is coming from?

I have updated to version 4.0 of OpenWeatherMap, and it installed properly on my Administrative Console, except that it is consistently Disconnected and receiving no new data on the Administrative Console, even though it is showing as properly connected on PG3. There was a prior thread on this issue, but I did not see a solution in the thread and the thread was closed. What is the solution?
