Are you giving the integration the correct weather station ID?
Iām pretty sure that I am. I followed the documentation and got it from this screen. Iām using 43205.
Edit: Sorry. Attached wrong screen shot initially
Hmmm that looks correct. You created the API key with the same account you are using to manage the device correct? I would assume so but just in case.
Yes - the only thing a little bit unusual is that itās not my account. Itās my fathers. However, I have his credentials and was able to log in as him and generate the API Key.
But since the integration doesnāt ask for an email address, I donāt see how that would matter.
(I have one also - but itās been offline for 3 months because of power problems. I have a battery pack I plan to connect when the snow melts and Iām not even trying to add mine to home assistant until itās operational.)
Correct me if Iām wrong, but this integration only uses the cloud API. It doesnāt attempt to contact the local Tempest or hub, right?
Is there any super debug mode feature for this integration that I can enable to have it log the actual api call itās making and the response that comes back?
Thanks.
Correct. There is a UDP version which is local but I havenāt tried it.

Okay - Iāve troubleshot this about as far as Iām capable of without getting a lot better with Python.
The error is occurring in pyweatherflowrest\api.py in the update_observations() function. It starts with:
async def update_observations(self) -> None:
"""Update observation data."""
if self._station_data is None:
return
data = await self._api_request(self.observation_url)
try:
if data is not None:
obervations: dict = data['obs'][0]
The API request is successful, but the ātryā block doesnāt return successfully. It raises the following exception:
except TypeError as err:
error_message = "Timeout fetching weatherflow data."
This is extremely misleading - and I assume a typo? If Iām not mistaken, this exception occurs because of a type conversion error while parsing the data returned by the API call - but the error message (which is the only thing that gets displayed to the user in the GUI) seems to imply that no data was returned and a timeout was reached.
In any case, here is the data that was returned. Can you please look it over and find the unexpected data value which causes the exception - and then update the api.py script to a) handle/ignore the unexpected data type, and b) improve the error message that is displayed when a TypeError occurs? (Iām curious as to what data, my Tempest is returning that causes this integration to break for me - but not for anybody else that is using the integration.)
If you need me to manually apply an updated api.py before you check-in an official update, Iād be happy to do so. I hope Iāve done enough to help you identify and resolve the issue - but if you need anything else from me, let me know.

Interestingā¦.I donāt see āobsā in your data JSON feed. This would cause the error and sudden halt.
Add ātryā in front of observations: to see if the script keeps moving forward.
Itās there. About 23 lines up from the bottomā¦
So - I was able to figure out how to add a traceback to the TypeError exception and this is what I see:
> 2023-02-26 16:08:03.300 DEBUG (MainThread) [custom_components.weatherflow] JIM: Exception raised: Timeout fetching weatherflow data.Traceback (most recent call last):
> File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pyweatherflowrest/api.py", line 285, in update_observations
> battery_mode, battery_mode_description = self.calc.battery_mode(
> TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable NoneType object
So I tried a few more things and actually got the integration to load!
I commented out the call to the function that triggers the TypeError exception - and then I hard-coded the 2 battery values it was intended to set:
self._observation_data = entity_data
await self._read_device_data()
# Update Tempest Specific Data
if self._station_data.is_tempest:
# battery_mode, battery_mode_description = self.calc.battery_mode(
# self._observation_data.voltage_tempest,
# obervations.get("solar_radiation")
# )
entity_data.battery_mode =int(0)
entity_data.battery_mode_description = "Wind sampling interval set to 6 seconds"
When I restart with the above modifications to the api.py, the integration loads and I get 1 Device and 12 Entities - and it all appears to be working. I donāt see any obvious errors in any of the code - but thereās obviously something wrong with the code (or my data). In any case - I look forward to an official update that works with my device/data - but until then, at least Iām not completely stuck anymore.
In case it aids in the troubleshooting, when it was failing, the OBS data was:
"obs":[[1677449722,0.18,1.72,2.98,300,3,980.4,-2.1,75,6359,0.18,52,0,0,0,0,2.77,1,0,0,0,0]]}

Thanks to those that tried to help!
Glad you figured it out! Btw what version are you running of WeatherFlow Weather? Mine is v1.0.14
Iām also on 1.0.14 - I only installed it 2 weeks ago and itās never worked (until today).
I had Home Assistant running on a Raspberry Pi five or six years ago - and even contributed a custom component (named Places) - but then I kind of got tired of trying to keep up with all of the breaking changes that seemed to come on a monthly basis - so I stepped away from the platform and have been without it for 4+ years.
Iāve just decided to dive back in and Iām running HA in a docker container on an ASUSTOR NAS. So much has changed in terms of configuration and the interface and itās taking a lot longer to get familiar with the new way than I expected. I think Iād have been less overwhelmed if I had never seen HA before. There are a lot of improvements to what I remember (especially in the UI) - but I am kind of surprised to find that there are a still a lot of mainstream devices that still lack support.
Anyhow - thanks very much for trying to help with this problem. Next up I need to try and figure out why my Ecovacs vacuum wonāt connect - and why my 360 S9 doesnāt seem to have ANY support at all here.
Thanks for all the details. As soon as I have time I will have a look at the data, and see how to prevent the error - and change the error message 
should it happen anyway.
I am sorry for the newbie question, but I am new to both HA and The Tempest, but I have been using other systems for many years.
I see I have rain data for both current, and daily, if I wanted to start storing historical data (year to date, and all time), can I do that, and can I display it? And if so, can I at least load the āstartingā totals from my old system somehow?
Home Assistant stores the data for you, so you can get the data from there. Tak a look at this page to learn more about statistical data in HA. As far as I know, there is no way to manually alter this, to enter your old data.
Thank you, I will check that out. In this case, I just want to add a number to the statistic it shows (+100" or so). Frankly, it can just lie to me by adding something to what it shows on the screen. I will worry about that part later I suppose. I am sure there is some way to add to the variable I assume.
Actually, those entries do not work as statistics since they are recorder data, and will disappear in x days (10 by default). I did some more research, and weatherflow DOES keep this data. I can see it in the app, so the question is how can it be scarped and picked up in HA?
Or what do I need to do to start storing this on my own? I have been looking around, and I see you can store historical data in another database, and then I guess show it in a graph. That seems like a lot of work to just keep track of one thing that I assume others want to know as well?
I just brought up Weewx on one of my always-on systems (a Pi in my case, but could be several platforms.) and it does a great job of both capturing the data and giving you several ways of storing it or integrating with other platforms. More important for me, it does this by monitoring the UDP data stream, so data collection and visualization isnāt affected by internet outages.
You will need to configure the Tempest Driver but if you can manage HA, this wonāt be hard.
I need help.
EDIT (the next morning): No I donāt. It was late. ādocker cpā did it. 
I moved my entire Home Assistant setup from my NAS server to a dedicated mini-pc (i9-9880H with 32GB RAM) and installed ProxMox. Then I created a Debian VM with 4 virtual cores and 8GB of memory just for Home-Assistant and itās related docker containers.
Since I was running the container version on the NAS and Iām also running the container version now on the mini-pc, almost everything migrated without a hitch - but Weatherflow didnāt - because I had to modify the api.py on the old system in order to get Weatherflow to work, and the api.py script isnāt in the āconfigā folder, itās in ā/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pyweatherflowrest/ā so it didnāt get copied to the new system along with everything else.
I still have the modified copy of the api.py script that WILL work for my use case - but - and this is the embarrassing part - I canāt remember how I managed to replace or modify the api.py file inside of the HomeAssistant docker container. I can open a console - but thereās no ānanoā? I read the history of this ticket - but it doesnāt look like I ever explained āhowā I had modified the api.py file the first time through (probably because at the time I thought it was āobviousā 
).
But in any case - can you (or anybody else) please suggest a way that I can replace the api.py script inside the HomeAssistant container so I can get this up and running again? Or alternatively - is there any chance youāve had time to figure out how to fix the problem permanently? Is there perhaps a new api.py available now? 
Thanks in advance.
Iām seeing a similar issue after updating to 2023.7.1. Getting this in the logs: ā[custom_components.weatherflow] Finished fetching weatherflow data in 0.040 seconds (success: False)ā and failing to setup. No other changes on my end outside of the upgrade to 7.1. Anyone else seeing the same issue? I tried rolling back to 2023.6.X but had an issue doing so thus canāt determine if it was the upgrade that broke things even though thatās specifically when it started.
