Hi David, I put the template into my main configuration.yaml file. It all works but is this bad practice and I will end up with a very big config file. If so is it better to reference it in another stand alone file? If I understand correctly your weather.yaml can sit in the /config folder then in config.yaml use the include function?
My examples are set up to include packages in configuration.yaml and I then have a weather.yaml package. It’s all on my github repo
Configuration.yaml
homeassistant:
packages: !include_dir_named packages
Then in config directory (where your configuration.yaml is) create a packages directory and put the weather.yaml in there and restart HA.
(note I use a lot of packages… even for scripts and automations so I can be sure the GUI editor doesn’t screw them up)

This is very strange. Are there potential conflicts between your card and the dark sky card? I can literally paste 'type: ‘custom:dark-sky-weather-card’ into my Lovelace config, and then replace it with ‘type: ‘custom:bom-weather-card’’, and it reverses the highs and lows. The high is always bold, but with yours, the high is listed 2nd, not first. (IE. 34/58 vs. 58/34).
No idea. I have not touched that code anywhere at any time. In any case if you change the parsed variable you can have it display as you like. but I have not touched that.
I compared the code and it looks the same to me…
This is the graphic from the old card:
Looks like low/high as well
Looks like low first needs

I must apologize; after spending a lot of time, I figured out, I had apparently modified, and subsequently abandoned my copy of the dark sky version, hence why it was different. Thank-you.

I don’t see the statistics or average component used.
Either of those creates the sensor.today_temp_bom sensor which I assume doesn’t exist in dev_tools?
The sensor.bom_today_min and sensor.bom_today_max are derived from that sensor.
(Also, check in dev_tools that all the sensors in red exist… The only reason a card won’t display is if entities are not there)
(Note if you used templates.md file it was missing the stats/average sensor. I fixed that just now)
Thanks David, I found the entities which are not valid and for some reason is due to it being set up for Viewbank when all other entities mapped to the coordinates I entered upon installation. Is there a way to reload these and enter coordinates again or is it a case of remove and reinstall?
Yeah so the observations will be for the closest BOM obs station whereas they use computer modelling to interpolate the forecasts for your exact suburb. In your case the BOM Obs station is Viewbank while your entered suburb for forecasts is Preston. (Same as my Obs is Gosford but forecast is Kariong)
IF you’re saying you are not in Viewbank then remove the integration and re-add it…
That’s fine, view bank is like 3 - 4 kilometers away I’m OK with that and thanks for the great card and your assistance!

Hey thanks for all the awesome work you guys do!!! Much appreciated. Have updated to the new integration and it works a treat.

I Brendan,
I do a calculation to calculate the effectiveness of my evaporative air conditioner with Delta_t.
Simply subtracting 80% of the delta_t from the current air temp gives a very good estimate of the air temperature that your evaporative air conditioner can manage. When the humidity is high, the delta_t is small and so when the resultant calculated temperature is more than say 24 degrees then it is not worth running the evap and time for the refrigerated aircon instead!
Just as a follow-up to this… If you don’t want to hack the card like you did before you can just change the entity you pass through like this:
change this:
entity_forecast_high_temp_1: sensor.kariong_max_1
entity_forecast_high_temp_2: sensor.kariong_max_2
entity_forecast_high_temp_3: sensor.kariong_max_3
entity_forecast_high_temp_4: sensor.kariong_max_4
entity_forecast_high_temp_5: sensor.kariong_max_5
entity_forecast_low_temp_1: sensor.kariong_min_1
entity_forecast_low_temp_2: sensor.kariong_min_2
entity_forecast_low_temp_3: sensor.kariong_min_3
entity_forecast_low_temp_4: sensor.kariong_min_4
entity_forecast_low_temp_5: sensor.kariong_min_5
to this:
entity_forecast_high_temp_1: sensor.kariong_min_1
entity_forecast_high_temp_2: sensor.kariong_min_2
entity_forecast_high_temp_3: sensor.kariong_min_3
entity_forecast_high_temp_4: sensor.kariong_min_4
entity_forecast_high_temp_5: sensor.kariong_min_5
entity_forecast_low_temp_1: sensor.kariong_max_1
entity_forecast_low_temp_2: sensor.kariong_max_2
entity_forecast_low_temp_3: sensor.kariong_max_3
entity_forecast_low_temp_4: sensor.kariong_max_4
entity_forecast_low_temp_5: sensor.kariong_max_5
Yes, that is correct, I could do that, however, would it not show the numbers as: high/low? (the low now being in bold?). I’ll admit, I haven’t tried it, but, I suspect that’s what it would do. I prefer my forecast to look like the attached image. If you felt so inclined to add an option for this, that’d be great, otherwise, I’ll just keep tweaking the code with each new update. I appreciate your work!

Yeah it will always bold the second one. It’s probably not a difficult change. I will take a look and see.
ok. Can you pull master instead of 0.82 and add a flag
tempformat: highlow
and then it will show this:
If it is working for you then I will push an update.
Empty cache and hard reload and ctrl+r a few times…
OH CRAP… hang on… I need another change cos when it refreshes it reverses again…
ok I fixed that. it should work as you want now. Please let me know.
DAMN I need to push to master… DONE.
