Source: KNX - Weather Report Blueprint

Requirements

  • Working KNX Integration
  • Home Assistant 2024.6.0 or greater
  • A weather entity (I tested it with the deafult entitiy)

Features

  • Daily or Hourly Forecast
  • Define the interval to send the information either with a scheduler or a minute interval
  • Temperature, Humidity, Wind Speed and Precipation
  • Lowest Temperature for the next day [Only works with a daily report]
  • The report status as a 1 Byte value to use it for example to show icons in a display like the enertex Meta²

Setup
This Blueprint uses a weather entity in Home Assistant to send forecast data to KNX. Start by selecting a weather Entity. For example, the default weather.home entity can be used.

In the Trigger Settings, choose how often the weather report should be sent to KNX: either daily or hourly. For the daily option, set a fixed time when the report will be sent. For the hourly option, define the time interval in minutes.

Next, in the Report Settings, choose the Forecast Type: either hourly or daily. The Forecast Number defines which forecast will be sent. For instance, selecting hourly with a Forecast Number of 1 sends the forecast for the next hour, while selecting daily with 1 sends tomorrow’s forecast, 2 for the day after tomorrow, and so on.

Under KNX Settings, specify the KNX group addresses to which the values should be sent. Finally, in the Report Description Settings, define which weather descriptions correspond to which 1-byte values. These values are sent to the designated Description Address depending on the weather condition reported by the forecast.

Thank you to farmio for the great KNX integration
