yeah, water sensor is going to suck. Dewpoint is not a good way either, way to “one dimensional”
throughput value is currently not configurable through a service, but feel free to make a PR for it.
How can I graph the rainfall from the weather service? My rain sensor is not working well, but when I use the weather service the bucket increases a great amount and there is never irrigation dispite little to no rain.
create a template sensor to extract the rainfall info from the weather service sensor.
That’s really my question, where is this “weather service sensor”? I am using the weather service from the plugin.
All I can see is sensor.smart_irrigation shows “number_of_data_points: 22” But it does not show details about these data points.
There has been zero rain (or maybe 0.01 inch) and the other day it was reading bucket 0.9, it was counting down to about 0.2 last time I checked.
Now I check again and it is reading bucket 1.2 inch!!!
I need to get this working, these values are not correct.
According to wundergound.com historical weather there was 0.17 inch rain march 5, 0.03 inch March 6, and 0.01 inch March 16.
This is not inline with what Smart Irrigation is reading
I am not sure what you mean. What is a plug-in? Which plug-in are you referring to? If you are using the weather service that Smart Irrigation provides then it’s Open Weather Map which can be great or not great at all for you. I’d recommend you set up a weather service you trust and feed that as sensors into SI using the panel that you will find in your left nav bar
I am talking about the Home Assistant plugin “Smart Irrigation” using the Open Weather Map service.
How can I see what rainfall data it is pulling in?
you can’t unless you turn on debug logging and look into the log files. to check what it is retrieving I’d set up the OWM integration to see what results you get for your location.
Now the bucket has been stuck at 0.0 for the past few days. Could I pay you to review everything and get it working properly? I quite don’t understand what is going on.
I did find this in the logs, but it doesn’t indicate what is ‘missing’

No need to pay me! This error indicates that there is no data for the zone. Can you share screenshots of your sensor groups screen?
