Zooming in and out of imagery is fluid, and the satellite map used allows you to zoom down to street level. According to Forecast Advisor, The Weather Channel is consistently rated as the most accurate weather app for many cities across the country.Īlthough it’s a more general weather app, there are some great radar features that we think are worth mentioning. Let me know if anyone makes some improvements as I am a absolute HA nube (2 weeks and counting).The Weather Channel’s app continues to be one of our top radar apps for 2023, and in our opinion, it’s the best actual mobile weather app. camera:įile_path: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/satimgs/radar_IDR713.gif This is really flexible in how the images look.
BTW: You can easily change the number of images in the loop, size of the images, type of background overlays. There are still a couple of rough edges like the ImageMagick command is not quite right but I will tidy that up when I get a chance. I then just added a camera.local_file to the appropriate group and all was well. It takes about 5+ secs to download and process for me which was a bit laggy to call the script on page load. This is the downside of this approach as I am downloading even when I am not using them. I then add an automation to grab and process the images on a regular (20 mins?) basis. #get the $iqty most recent images quietlyĬurl -silent -list-only /anon/gen/radar/|grep $ID.T|tail -$iqty|xargs -i wget -q ''Ĭonvert -layers flatten -dispose none $ID.background.png $ID.locations.png -dispose previous $ID.T*.png -set delay 75 -loop 0 radar_$ID.gif Img_out="/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/satimgs/"
I am sure the python gurus can do better with a more eloquent script.
So wanting to play a little with ImageMagick I installed the package and created a quick bash script. I wasn’t able find a url that had the wanted images (although I am sure it exists) as BOM seem to provide the png’s in transparent layer format.
I thought I might share my toying with this type of approach with the Australian BOM radar images.
