Thank you Oleg for this flow!

I have learned so much from playing with the values and adapting them to fit my location. It is currently displaying basic weather information on my custom-built smart mirror.

I have one question, how can I increase the time periods? Currently, it seems like it goes per hour but I would like to for example show the minimum and maximum temperature per day?

Thank you
Jason

Thank you Oleg for your update. The minimum temperature seems to be working but the maximum temperature is still showing the current temperature for some reason and not the maximum temperature for today?

Is it possible to set the timeframe of 00:00 - 00:00(+24 hours) similar to other weather services?

Thank you
Jason

yr.nr can provide information about min / max only for the next 6h

so if you grab data from yr.nr now (for example now is 3PM) you can't get min temp for today, cuz we lost.

Thank you Oleg,

I am still new to node red so I am still learning a lot. I noticed the new update is outputting an object that is in the format:
.{ "air_pressure_at_sea_level":1029.6,
"air_temperature":10.5, ... }

I am having trouble to access and display this on a simple text node on the UI.

Your previous version had an output in msg.payload which I am more used to accessing.
I looked through your parser function and it seems that this is where the code stops using the msg.payload and changes the object's format?

If I use a debug node I can access the data in JSONata but using it on a text node, I get completely lost

Can you please give me guidance on how to display this in UI?

Much appreciated and thank you
Jason

Updated the geolocation but got an error:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'model')
And this is why?

idk.
