Those of us who have OSPi, especially powered by Pi version 2, probably have the CPU and storage to save the script locally and run the algorithm autonomously.

Could you…

  • Include a check for Raspian (or PiV2 if the A & B+ are underpowered), and if present…
  • Present options in the advanced section to …
  • Store the Zimmerman (or later ET) variables locally and …
  • Then modify the Zimmerman (or later ET) perimeters.

This would allow users to continue to function if your site went off line. It would give us the option to alter the weather algorithm’s variables, or not. As more people used stronger processors, the amount of user variables stored on your server would decrease.
