Hello,

Just detected that wunderground (now IBM) stopped the APIs completely.
I was already recording some of the info but not using it in any logic, hence I only saw this now;
But I was planning to use some of this data, mainly the forecasts.

So question to the community: what alternatives do you have in mind ?
I guess there are still free alternatives (as accuweather)
or there are pyaing options: What is the experience with Loxone Weather Service ?


Your input is very welcome,

Best Regards,

Jan.

I'm using darksky api and defining (overriding) the weather related system variables in logic. 1000 queries / day free (enough for one query every ~90 secs).

+1 for Darksky. In fact I prefer this to the old wunderground (the current conditions are better) so it's a blessing in disguise.

There's a (limited) template here that's a good starting point:
