Hi all,

I just installed and set up the current version of the Belchertown skin and am trying to display AQI and Cloud Cover. I have "aqi", "visibility", and "cloud_cover" in my line for station observations. visibility displays correctly and updates, showing a current value with proper units (eg, "Visibility 10 miles". However, both aqi and cloud_cover output as

"aqi Invalid Observation" and "cloud_cover Invalid Observation".

I have Aeris set up and am seeing live forecasts on my page. I also have use metar enabled.

Additionally, I have aqi_enabled = 1 and aqi_location_enabled =1 and am seeing neither of those displaying on the left side of the screen.

I assume I could be having issues with AQI due to lack of observations, but I'm surprised that I can't seem to get cloud cover to show.

Any issues with this? Something I'm missing? Any help/insight would be appreciated!

Evan

Evan:

Try stopping the site and clearing the existing html files (especially the JSON files) and restart it. I remember running into the same problem and that did the trick.

Hi Doug,

I'm pretty sure I've done that, but I gave it another shot. No change.

Evan,
I was running version 1.2 of the Belchertown skin and was not able to display the AQI results for my town. What I did to solve it was to grab a copy of the development version by downloading and installing a zipped version of the code. After commenting out Beaufort Scale Default Labels the skin produced the AQI results. I haven't messed with the cloud cover so I can't offer any help with it.

Good luck,
Clifford

Hi Clifford,

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to look into this.

Evan
