That URL looks right. Using that as a test URL, it's working for me. I've created another lab weewx system in metric and I think everything you've pointed out is looking good now. Give it a test and let me know.
For the map: Looking at your page source, looks like you've omitted the lat/lon for your windy map. So I am guessing I am seeing the east coast because of a saved windy cookie. If you go back to this message <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/weewx-user/GSrKZEiPqsc/vdcYJCM9DwAJ>, you can see the lat/lon in the URL... update that and add that to your config. Probably don't need the detailLat/detailLon. v0.3 is available to download. https://github.com/poblabs/weewx-belchertown/releases/tag/weewx-belchertown-0.3 On Wednesday, August 22, 2018 at 9:05:55 PM UTC-4, Colin Larsen wrote: > > Thanks Pat, I thought I made the change correctly in belchertown.py but it > hasn't fixed it - not sure what's up that I missed? > > forecast_url = *"https://api.darksky.net/forecast/%s/%s,%s?units=%s"* % ( > darksky_secret_key, > latitude, longitude, darksky_units ) > > It's the one in /usr/share/weewx/user ? > > The map is correct here which is strange, it shows NZ front and centre.
