Weather question and Weather error: building weather history

[gary]

Hi,

I am experiencing an couple of issues with the weather calls.

First, how often are the weather calls made. I would expect them to be every hour. I sometimes see last call: 14 hours ago. Why does it wait so long? Is there a place to set how often to make the calls?

Second, the first problem won’t matter if the second is not resolved. Under system diagnostics I see Weather Service: Error and Last Response: Building Weather History.
Any idea what that is about?

The weather call is made every 2 hours:

Regarding the error ‘Building Weather History”, I just became aware of the weather call error: this has to do with the daylight savings time change yesterday. Apparently our current script has a bug that if DST is not accounted for, then the next day it returns an error that it didn’t get sufficient 24-hour weather data from yesterday. This should resolve itself by midnight today once we are outside of the 24-hour window. but obviously we will fix it so it doesn’t happen again next year.
