I checked the log file on our server and it’s pretty clear that your weather query is being sent every 30 seconds, which happens when the controller does not receive the last call result. That’s why I was asking if the sunrise/sunset time is correct, because if that’s not correct, the controller is clearly not receiving the call result, and hence repeatedly call again every 30 second. If the call is received correctly, the next call should be in 15 minutes.
We can change the firmware to reduce the call frequency upon failure. Unfortunately this doesn’t really fix the issue in your case because the root cause of issue is your controller is for some reason not receiving the call result, which is quite strange.
