Hi everyone, I’m trying to visualize the forecasted temperature data from the met.no HA integration in Grafana. The data is stored in InfluxDB, and I want to create a graph that shows the temperature forecast over the next few days. I’ve explored a few options, but none seem to work quite right. Let me share what I’ve tried so far and see if anyone has any suggestions or solutions.
First, I looked into creating an automation that manually writes the forecast data into InfluxDB. However, it seems like this functionality doesn’t exist or isn’t straightforward to implement. Next, I considered setting up a new sensor with future timestamps. Unfortunately, Home Assistant doesn’t support this approach either, as sensors typically require real-time data.
I also examined the structure of the met.no sensor data. It provides current temperature, dew point, and forecast data with timestamps for each hour. For example, the forecast for 2024-01-12T11:00:00+00:00 shows a temperature of -2.3°C, and for 2024-01-13T11:00:00+00:00, it’s -2°C. I want to display this forecasted data in Grafana in a way that’s easy to interpret, similar to the image provided.
I’m wondering if there’s a way to extract the forecast data from the met.no integration and feed it into a separate sensor or data source that Grafana can use. Maybe there’s a workaround or a different integration that can help achieve this. I’m also curious if anyone has successfully done something similar and can share their setup or configuration details.
Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated! I’m excited to see if the community can help me crack this one. Thanks in advance for your insights and suggestions!
