macjeff Posted December 24, 2023 Posted December 24, 2023 On EISY I am trying to write programs for Winter Storm Warning. The Alert Type only goes through F. Maybe a limit to ISY. If so could you Split up somehow Alert A-F. Alert G-M. etc? Screenshot attached. Confirmed on both PC and Mac,

Missing Winter Storm Watch and Winter Weather Advisory. The last one is winter Storm Warning but alphabetically those two missing would come after that. Maybe more missing but those two are for sure.
bpwwer Posted December 25, 2023 Posted December 25, 2023 The last alert in the list is Winter Storm Warning. Winter Storm Watch and Winter Storm Advisory don't (or didn't at the time I last updated the list) exist in the list. I've updated the list in the plug-in based on the latest info from NOAA.

Winter Storm Watch and Winter Weather Advisory are now on your list of alerts. We had both this evening and neither showed up in the Alert box in the admin console. Should they? Thank you!

We had both this evening and neither showed up in the Alert box in the admin console. Should they? Thank you! Bob did the programming but I have been testing this. I see it in programs now but as you know its hard to test when there is no alert. From your image, I see it sees an alert. Minor so I would assume thats the Watch. I can confirm if there are two at the same time it only shows one. I forget how it picks which one. But thats not the case either. I am thinking the database is working for programs but not being sent back to the ISY. Have to leave this one for Bob. I cant even test since we have no alerts. Models show a possible winter storm for next weekend but a week out so who knows. If I can test I will. I can confirm a dense fog advisory came out and worked last week I have alexa announce the alerts if you are interested. I know she has notifications for alerts but she does not actually say it unless you have her read the notifications. So I have a program that says if this alert then push a button (using Virtual Buttons nodederver which has ALexa buttons). You can also do it with variables exposed as motion sensors. So if Dense Fog Advisory it pushes the button and alexa says Dense Fog Advisory issued for and says my address. So if the storm works out and Bob fixes it I will report back if it works next weekend!!!

We are currently under a Winter Weather Advisory and nothing is displayed in the admin console. Like you, I'm assuming that the Winter Storm Watch and Winter Weather Advisory alerts are not getting to back to the Eisy. I also use Alexa for alert notifications as you described as well as UD Mobile notifications.

bpwwer Posted January 1 Posted January 1 Alerts are difficult to test and where I'm at, we rarely get any at all. Since the node server has to parse the alert info that comes from NOAA, it's possible that I'm not parsing out that specific event correctly. I based the parsing on the info I got from the NOAA site but I'd have to see the debug output of the node server for that event in order to check it.

Since @dbuss logs are probably already archived, I am not sure if @dbuss could SSH and get them. If not we are in for a weekend storm and I could send logs when our watches come out. Most likely Thursday. We would have Winter Storm Watch and then Warning a day later. Right now no alerts. Edited January 1 by macjeff

I've attached the log from 12/30. We had weather alerts that day. Does this provide any useful information? NOAA_1-1-2024_62403_PM.zip
bpwwer Posted January 2 Posted January 2 Only in that it does show there was an error parsing the alert. The logging needs to be at debug level to show what the alert looked like so I can figure out why it got the error parsing it.

dbuss Posted January 3 Posted January 3 @bpwwer and @macjeffwe are currently under a "Hazardous Weather Outlook". The Alert box says "None". I've attached my debug log. NOAA_1-3-2024_14426_PM.zip

I've attached my debug log. NOAA_1-3-2024_14426_PM.zip 41 kB · 0 downloads Hazardous Weather Outlook are issued daily. Its not a watch or a warning. I would be surprized if that came up. In fact, I would not want it to. Those are to tell you in the next 7 days if there is anything to watch for. Sometimes it says none. Mine is in debug waiting on something.
dbuss Posted January 3 Posted January 3 4 minutes ago, macjeff said: In fact, I would not want it to. I agree. I thought it might provide some helpful information for other alerts. We could very well have weather alerts this afternoon and/or tonight. I'm in debug mode if it happens.
macjeff Posted January 4 Author Posted January 4 I am on phone but it worked for me. see screenshot. 1
macjeff Posted January 5 Author Posted January 5 Ok now we have an issue Winter Weather Advisory in effect Shows as NONE See log and screenshots NOAA_1-5-2024_110502_AM.zip
bpwwer Posted January 5 Posted January 5 We had a winter storm watch and winter storm warning (for the lake Tahoe area) and those seemed to work fine. So now explain why for every other type of alert there is <alert> watch, <alert> warning, <alert> advisory but for this it is "winter storm watch" "winter storm warning" "winter weather advisory" I've updated the plug-in to use "winter weather advisory" instead of "winter storm advisory"
macjeff Posted January 5 Author Posted January 5 That worked!!! Now says Winter Weather Advisory and said Winter Storm Watch last night Jeff
dbuss Posted January 8 Posted January 8 We had a Winter Weather Advisory, a Winter Storm Watch, and now a Winter Storm Warning, and all worked perfectly. Thank you, @bpwwer!
