Thanks for this excellent share, works great.
Just comparing readings from your config to readings from Weather Underground which doesn’t match, any ideas?
sensor.wind_compass 221.6
sensor.weather_wind_direction 221.6
sensor.dark_sky_wind_bearing 158
sensor.pws_wind_dir West
I use Yr.no as the source for wind data. Which is the preferred weather data provider where I live.
Weather underground, I think, uses other sources like private weather stations for collecting waether data.
Find your source sensor from HA, which is as local for you. Then use it with the wind compass.
Great work! I have the new sensors with the wind information, but I am not able to get the image to load.
I am using hass.io.
Uploaded all images to my directory: config/www/wind_compass
I am using this code (see file information, is that the right address)?
{% elif 28.13 <= states('sensor.yr_wind_direction')|float <= 39.37 %}
` /local/wind_compass/33.png`Remove the apostrophe
cool. nice work.
Ive set it up using Buienradar as follows:

not sure we need the abbreviation template, since Buienradar has that built-in:
But, this template might be more precise, so Ill leave it in for the moment 
Nice little dashboard in the frontend Weather page.
Thanks for the icons and work on this!
follow-up:
please have a look at How to shorten/join this template?
how @datamonkey helped me create this even shorter and way more intelligent template:
wind_compass:
friendly_name: Windrichting
value_template: >
{{ states('sensor.br_wind_direction_azimuth') }}
friendly_name_template: >
{{ states('sensor.wind_compass_abbreviation') }}
unit_of_measurement: '°'
entity_picture_template: >
{% set degrees = states('sensor.br_wind_direction_azimuth')|float %}
{% set path = '/local/weather/wind_compass/' %}
{% set ext = '.png' %}
{{path-}}
{%- if 354.38 <= degrees or degrees <= 5.62 -%} 0
{%- else -%}
{{ ( ((degrees/11.25)|round )*11.25 )| round}}
{%- endif -%}
{{-ext-}}
so cool.
Wow. Nifty : )
I saw your full solution here.
Maybe you can define an array of jsons and have all your mappings in one place.
Not sure if you can share it between template sensors, you would need to try.
{% set dir = [
{"abr": "N" , "friendly" : "North"} ,
{"abr": "NbE", "friendly" : "North by East"},
{"abr": "NNE", "friendly" : "North North East"},
{"abr": "NEbN", "friendly" : "North East by North"},
...
{"abr": "N" , "friendly" : "North"}
] %}
{% set degrees = 7 %}
{% set d = (degrees/11.25)|round %}
Abbreviation = {{dir[d].abr}}
Friendly = {{dir[d].friendly}}
Picture = {{dir[d].abr|lower}}.png
returns
Abbreviation = NbE
Friendly = North by East
Picture = nbe.png
this would require you to rename the pictures, or you add another pair in the array to link to the picture name
thanks to @petro its getting even better:
wind_compass_abbreviation:

{% set degrees = states('sensor.br_wind_direction_azimuth')|float %}
{% set abbr = ['N','NNNO','NNO','ONNO','NO','NONO','ONO','OONO','O','OOZO','OZO','ZOZO','ZO',

{%- set i = ((degrees / 11.25) | round(0)) | int %}
{%- set i = 0 if i == 32 else i %}
{{ abbr[i] }}
wind_compass_direction:

{% set degrees = states('sensor.br_wind_direction_azimuth')|float %}
{% set direction = ['Noord','Noord Ten Oosten','Noordnoordoost','Noordoost Ten Noorden','Noordoost',

{%- set i = ((degrees / 11.25) | round(0)) | int %}
{%- set i = 0 if i == 32 else i %}
{{ direction[i] }}
now this I must study
have a look at the post above for 2 separate sensors with comparable lists. Is already really very nice.
Combining those into 1 is the next challenge…
thanks for the suggestion , and please don’t hold back ;
meanwhile, here’s a sensor with all info in 1:
wind_compass_direction:

{% set degrees = states('sensor.br_wind_direction_azimuth')|float %}
{% set abbr = states('sensor.wind_compass_abbreviation') %}

{% set degrees = states('sensor.br_wind_direction_azimuth')|float %}
{% set direction = ['Noord','Noord Ten Oosten','Noordnoordoost','Noordoost Ten Noorden','Noordoost',
'Noordoost Ten Oosten','Oostnoordoost','Oost Ten Noorden',
'Oost','Oost Ten Zuiden','Oostzuidoost','Zuidoost Ten Oosten','Zuidoost',
'Zuidoost Ten Zuiden','Zuidzuidoost','Zuid Ten Oosten',
'Zuid','Zuid Ten Westen','Zuidzuidwest','Zuidwest Ten Zuiden','Zuidwest',
'Zuidwest Ten Westen','Westzuidwest','West Ten Zuiden',
'West','West Ten Noorden','Westnoordwest','Noordwest Ten Westen','Noordwest',
'Noordwest Ten Noorden','Noordnoordwest','Noord Ten Westen'] %}
{%- set i = ((degrees / 11.25) | round(0)) | int %}
{%- set i = 0 if i == 32 else i %}
{{ direction[i] }}
entity_picture_template: >
{%- set degrees = states('sensor.br_wind_direction_azimuth')|float %}
{%- set path = '/local/weather/wind_compass/' %}
{%- set ext = '.png' %}
{%- set num = ((degrees // 11.25) * 11.25 // 1) | int %}
{%- set num = 0 if num == 360 else num %}
{{ "{}{}{}".format(path,num,ext) }}
Is it possible to show this on the map component in Home assistant ?
I have not tried putting this sensor on the map. Think that sensor need latitude and longitude attributes, and it will display automatically.
Thanks guys for the job, work well to track ISS.

Can someone post how they setup the template? I tried but each time the Check Configuration it says something about format error in code. Now is this to be used under Sensor on the config or something else? I love the idea in using this but can’t seem to get the coding right. I see where some shorten it but I don’t think that works with the Yr.no sensor.

I 've used the above “png” files.
NB : the files have to be put at home_assistant/www/foobar path. It is seen as /local/foobar.
@jugla Maybe also add some attributes to your compass:

Thanks a lot, I will try.
Just a remark with the “round formula”
((degrees/11.25)|round )*11.25 )| round}
You must link(or copy) some xxx.png.
112 --> 113
123 --> 124
157 --> 158
168 --> 169
202 --> 203
213 --> 214
22 --> 23
247 --> 248
258 --> 259
292 --> 293
303 --> 304
337 --> 338
348 --> 349
33 --> 34
And to simplify the code, you can link 0 with 360.
