Ciao,
I just noticed that in OpenSprinkler the average temperature used (see Weather Diagnostic pop-up example) is not aligned with the one provided by Weather Underground itself (see WU screenshot).
Basically I think that OSpi calculates Mean Temperature as (High + Low) / 2 instead of using the Actual Daily Avg.
In a day like yesterday (June 2nd), with high difference High/Low but real temp decrease only over night, this can bring to a significant difference => signifcant water level difference:
pws:ILOMBARD218
June 2nd – WU
High => 29.7 °C
Low => 17.7 °C
Avg => 24.6 °CJune 2nd – OSpi
Mean Temp => 23.7 °CCan you check it out if my theory is right ?
Thanks !
Regards,
Emiliano.The average temp is simply [‘history’][‘dailysummary’][0][‘meantempi’] from the JSON reply provided by WU. This is the temp used to generate the scale. If you are running an older version of the weather python script locally you should update. Otherwise you are simply seeing a display error, that should not change the weather scaling from lining up with the WU data.
