Can you let me know your station ID and I will investigate further?
Thanks Peter, station18946
I’ve tracked down the bug, but it is related to a bigger issue with the API that the PiConsole cannot handle. You can see details here: Extra API fields when bucket_step=1440 and I will get a fix in place ASAP
Thanks @peter! Looks great. I’ve never had the forecast before, so does it have the ability to show the forecast for the day, like high temperature, chance of rain, etc, but for Today as a whole?
I actually kind of like having the upcoming hour since it’s most relevant to right now. I’m thinking of my wife asking me if there is rain in the forecast for today.

Thanks Peter,
Update went smooth as silk. How long do you need to wait for the forecast to show up? After updating the forecast panel says “Forecast Unavailable”. I am guessing it will take some time for it to show up.
Never mind, it just showed up. I have been waiting for the Tempest forecast I got too impatient.
@tom.hutchison Glad the update went smoothly. The forecast should show up immediately. Let me know if you see this again, and I will investigate more.
@stevecody Right now there is no ability to see the forecast for the entire day. I’ve always felt that there are other apps out there (like the Tempest app) that provide a much better interface to see an entire day’s forecast than anything I could implement on the console. So instead I have chosen to focus just on the upcoming hour. Now the new forecast is working, I do plan to revamp the forecast panel, so I can look at implementing some of the daily forecast details (such as max/min temperature etc.)

Brilliant - does this mean the weather flow forecast is part of the public’s api now ?

It will be, but it isn’t quite ready yet (as in there is no documentation available and WF may still make changes). They OK’ed me to release an early version though.

Now that @peter released his first cut of the WeatherFlow forecast implementation, I guess, I can share a link to my fork as well;-) Some people might have seen some pictures from me above. My code lives here (updated/merged with @peter 's v3.60;-) GitHub - mw46d/WeatherFlow_PiConsole: Raspberry Pi Python console for WeatherFlow Tempest and Smart Home Weather Stations

Interesting. I still had the issue where it was flashing the wrong box and reconfigured the box to the bottom corner inatead, now it flashes correctly and provides the correct historical lightning information
Very cool so far! Not to be pixky but it is using military time for the forecast time :). I believe sagar was too
That’s very true! I will make those respect the user’s specified time format in the next version
You’re the man, thank you sir! 
@peter, I just in stalled this on a pi 4 with longrunner pi 7" display, it’s a 1024x600 screen. when I have console launch, it only takes up the middle 60% of the screen, I have to use a mouse to stretch it to full screen, left, right and bottom. is there a setting that I can make it go full screen?
By the way, this is awesome!
Thanks
Les
Hi @les.anthis, thanks for checking out the console. Unfortunately there is no built in setting to expand the size as the console is designed specifically for the official 7 inch screen. That being said, if you change line 243 of mainy.py to read Window.size = (1024,600), that should achieve what you are looking for. There will be some stretching and slight pixelating unfortunately.
PS. I assume it was your email via GitHub as well?
