Even more confusing now. It’s windy today but still the wrong icon for wind?
Is it something to do with the times? Start time local looks right but issue time hasn’t occurred yet?
ok so what do you have for old_icons in config? Default is true so maybe try false or hybrid. (Hybrid is a mix of old and new) The original icons didn’t have an icon for windy. Make sure you get the latest icons if you haven’t already
I had no entry in my config for old_icons: Tried setting it to false made no difference. Tried hybrid and it’s resolved. Thanks for your help.

you may need to put false in ‘’… is ‘false’
I have a view in HA that displays all possible icon options and false works here…
Ok GOOD NEWS. @theRat Simon has fixed this for 0.116.x compatability. Also backwards compatable with 0.115.6 etc…
Simon also wrote the excellent BOM Radar Card

Thanks Simon and Dave, working again 0.116.

Yeah. It’s all thanks to Simon…
No probs all. I lifted the fix from another card that had the problem.

Ha!!
I tried that as well… scanned all the weather cards that had been updated and couldn’t find a fix. Kudos to you anyway. You knew better than me what to look for. Honestly I’m just hacking the work of others and adding options in my component/card. I’m standing on the shoulders of giants lol.
Hi David, I have done but a HA restart and chrome reload and still not having any luck getting the card to show. I can see errors when loading up F12. Have I missed the fix other than a restart? Thank you!
Have you updated to latest version? Are you on HA 0.116.x? There was an update to this card for 0.116.
If this is the first time you have tried to use the card, the most common problem is parsing non existent entities to the card… More infor needed from you to help with this.
Thank you for your reply, I really appriciate it! I updated from 115 directly to 116.1. Okay, so how would I go about fixing the parsing non exsitent entities?
An you check in the console and see what version of the card you have. (Should be 0.79) Also with console open (F12) right-click refresh and select empty cache and hard reload. This is a new install right?
Can you show the card config please.
Hi David,
I wonder if you could help me… I could never get your wonderful BOM weather card to appear in my lovelace dashboard whereas the other custom weather cards from HACS appear to work fine (except for the icons as they expect some of the weather conditions named slightly differently from what BOM issues)…
Here’s a view of my dashboard:
and here a view of my config in my attempt to use your custom BOM weather card:
and here’s the actual config

Can you show how you have configured the bom sensor and the ftp sensor and the template sensors you are using?
I’m going to guess you aren’t passing through the correct entities to the card. If the entities you are parsing through don’t exist the card won’t show.

so the current_conditions one for sure is wrong should be sensor.bom_forecast I think.
Check in dev_tools to see if the entities exist in there and have values
Hi David,
Yes, I can see why it is confusing, I have got another sensor which is defined as such:
- platform: bom
station: "IDW60901.94608"
name: Perth
monitored_conditions:
- apparent_t
- gust_kmh
- air_temp
- rain_trace
- rel_hum
- vis_km
- weather
- wind_dir
- wind_spd_kmh
This was done a while back prior to discovering and using your forecast/lovelace card, which results in these lots of entitiies:
and
I know it’s confusing but the entities defined are all there. They are all showing in my other weather/entities cards.
I’ve pretty much taken your example and plonk the entire config into it, changing the entity names to match mine. Should have worked, but unfortunately not for some reasons. Using similar weather (eg. HACS Weather conditions) cards with the same lots of entities show their values and results ok, naturally I would have loved to use the one you have developed as it is tailored for BOM values.
Will do more digging and thanks again for your help.
