I just added meteo.be to my dashboard. They provide a url for embedding in an iframe. You can specify your zipcode, background and more.
You can’t easily access the data, but if you have an outside temperature available there’s probably not much you can do with it anyway (at least I wouldn’t rely on weather forecasts for automations)
The inside and outside temperature come from my Daikin airco
hey Thibault. ever got this to work? I would love to integrate id=“weather-react” from VRT weer in my hass lovelace, but can’t figure out how to show only that part and not the whole page.
I’ve managed to publish the client to interact with VRT services on pypi: https://pypi.org/project/pyvrt/ but haven’t found the time to create a HA integration for this.
For you and those interested, I created a small Flask app as an example on how you could run these locally for weather info, traffic and radio (which i added today): https://github.com/thibmaek/vrt-http-flask
I think it depends on the location, as I live in western Flanders I did a comparison between the buienradar and the meteo France integration.
Buienradar gives me conditions from the Cadzand meteo station, Meteo France from the Werviq-sud meteo station.
Cadzand is 60km’s from where I live, Werviq-sud is 25km.
For me, Meteo France is the most accurate, especialy when you take in account the coastal weather differs from the inland.
@tom_el_camino, did you manage to create an integration for home assistant. I was also looking for a good source of weather data, and found the KMI app. It uses an api (https://app.meteo.be).
By looking at the code of the app, I managed to figure out how it works. However, I’m not a coder … So I’m looking for someone who could help me in creating an home assistant integration based upon the KMI api.
Yeah, unfortunately I’m in the same boat. Didn’t manage to get it going.
Tried with webscraping, but the result the default weather forecast is actually so accurate close to kmi, I’m just using that one.
I managed to write a small python scripts that uses the meteo.be api to retrieve the forecast data, but I’m not skilled enough to create a home assistant integration based upon it.
@wernerkarlheisenberg@amedia I was looking into the possibility of integrating the KMI forecasts into HA and stumbled across this topic. It sounds like you both found a way to interact with meteo.be (through an actual api?) in a way that I haven’t managed to find at this time. The best I seem to be able to do would be to process and extract the relevant data from the response of e.g. https://app.meteo.be/nl/meteo/change-day/1/21004?
Is this what you did as well, or could give some guidance in a different direction?
