Climacell PiClock api implementation daily weather descriptions very terse
Would like to make a more descriptive weather description for the forecast based on the quantitative data for the period in question. DarkSky did it for us in the 'summary' field.
I have been debating adding openweather forecasts. Currently I use NOAA, and it simplified the process with description and summary being defined. It’s been a low priority for me, since my fork is US centric. NOAA also modifies the date with Federal holidays so bonus :)
Climacell seems good only for current observations, and we need another provider for forecasts.
ClimaCell seems to work fine for forecasts. They just don't provide a summary description like Darksky did. Openweathermap provides a description, but it is a reflection of the weather icon.
I've captured some weather summaries from dark sky and compared them to the quantitative data. It looks quite obviously programmatically generated. With a little thought I think an algorithm could be created. Certainly I would not attempt a NOAA style weather synopsis for the day.
ya, I think that also gives you more control over the display; right now (at least for me) it is likely that the text gets too long and truncates at some point which makes it not as great.
