The `wundergroundpws` platform uses [Weather Underground](http://www.wunderground.com) as a source for current weather information.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p class='note warning'>
|
||
|
Free API keys are only issued to registered and active Weather Underground personal weather station users.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To use this sensor, you need to enter your personal weather station API key and Station ID in configuration.yaml.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To get a free API key:
|
||
|
1) You must have a personal weather station registered and uploading data to Weather Underground
|
||
|
|
||
|
a) Join weather Underground
|
||
|
|
||
|
b) Sign In
|
||
|
|
||
|
c) My Profile -> My Weather Stations
|
||
|
|
||
|
d) Add a New PWS
|
||
|
2) get API key at https://www.wunderground.com/member/api-keys
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please consider this when using the following information.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Current conditions are generated from the wundergroundpws configured pws_id.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Forecast is generated from the HA configured latitude/longitude.
|
||
|

|
<p class='note warning'>
|
||
|
Note: While the platform is called “wundergroundpws” the sensors will show up in Home Assistant as “WUPWS” (eg: sensor.wupws_weather_1d).
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that the Weather Underground sensor is added to the entity_registry, so second and subsequent Personal Weather Station ID (pws_id) will have their monitored conditions suffixed with an index number e.g.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```yaml
|
||
|
- sensor.wupws_weather_1d_metric_2
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Additional details about the API are available [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eKCnKXI9xnoMGRRzOL1xPCBihNV2rOet08qpE_gArAY/edit).
