Hi Lorenzo,
It seems like you only have the AIR Module installed, as no Wind Readings are returned. Is that true?
I will try and do better error handling, so that you can load the module, even without a SKY module. Then there will just be a lot of zero values.
EDIT: There is now a new release that should work even if you don’t have either the SKY or AIR unit installed. Update through Customer Updater or download __init__.py
thanks a lot will try as i get back home
EDIT WORKS THANKS!!!
Hi,
thanks for the help, how to I change the unit for the wind from m/s to km/h? Any ETA for the UDP based version ?
thanks
I am assuming your are refering to the Sensor component, as the Weather Component does return Wind in km/h (As per default for this type of Component)
When your Home Assistant Unit System is Metric, it will always return the Wind Speeds in m/s. For now the only way to get this in km/h is by creating a template sensor where you convert the value. I will look in to having the option of converting to km/h build in to the component.
I have the Sensor component running via UDP on a test system for a few weeks now, I just need to find the time to package it all nicely together so that others can test it too.Hopefully during the Easter period I will find the time to do it.
That was more or less where I got to, before I gave up. In the end I went with a UDP Listener helper, which published to MQTT and just picked it up in HA. Wasn’t what I wanted to do, but I really could not make head nor tail of how to proceed with a full custom component (nor if it should be sensors with attributes, platforms with sensors or any of the other combinations!).
Glad to see someone else working on it, I hope you have more luck 
There is now a UDP version available for test. Look in this entry and please post questions to the UDP version in there. WeatherFlow Smart Weather Station via UDP
@Lorenzo_Gulli: There is now a new version that supports km/h as Wind Unit, when using the Metric Unit System in Home assistant. Download the sensor.py file or update via Custom Updater. See the README.md on Github, for setup instructions.
Thanks @briss this is fantastic! 
Hey fellas!
Really enjoying the component so far - had an issue crop up through where all of a sudden after working fine, a restart has the smartweather component failing with the following log popping up in Hass:
019-05-13 19:38:56 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.setup] Error during setup of component smartweather

IndexError: list index out of range
Has anyone seen this before, have already checked to make sure the files are up to date, but no luck there.
UPDATE: Turns out the station I was using was no longer available (no recent observation) - switching to an alternate corrected the problem!
This is a great component but today I have some weirdness.
About an hour ago I stopped getting any light based info. Other monitored conditions still work so the station is still on line and looking on the website the figures I want are still being measured.
Any idea what is going on?
I’ve done all the usual checks like restart HA and there is no mention of Smartweather in my logs.

On vacation right now. Will look at when I am back in a week
That seems like a reasonable excuse 
Thanks and have a great time!
Sorry for the long delay. I moved house when getting back from vacation, so the delay was a bit a longer:grinning: Do you still have the problem? If yes, what is the Station ID you are using?
Thanks but no I don’t, strangely enough it came back all by itself a couple of days ago.
Very strange.
I’ll let you know if it happens again.
briis, I had an error occur today - no changes on my end to HA. Here are the logs:

I haven’t investigated much, but this is probably the kick I need to finally move over to your other plugin which avoids the cloud altogether - although this error means the Darksky forceasting component is also broken. But anyway, would it have anything to do with this?
I just found that out also. I am working on an update to remove the precip_accum_last_24hr from the calls as a quick fix. I will add the new values as soon as possible.
Cheers mate! 
The problem should now be fixed, and a new version is available on Github. A breaking change is that the sensor precipitation_24_hr does no longer exist.
I also made some changes on how Custom_Updater is working, so that you will only have 1 entry in the Tracker Card going forward. So if Custom_Updater does nor work, please delete all files in the SmartWeather folder and re-download from Github.
Thanks Bjarne, all working again - this is a great component.
Hi
I am trying to use this component without a ‘Smart Weather Station’, I only want to use:
