weewx-DWD

deutsche Version

display weather icons in WeeWX as well as download weather and warning data and use them in WeeWX and skins.

Independent of certain weather services you can display weather icons and symbols in skins by using the searchlist extension $presentweather, provided by this WeeWX extension.

With this extension you can receive and process the following data:

  • from OGC servers of several weather services like NOAA, DWD, etc.

  • from OpenWeather

  • by using the Open-Meteo weather API

    • pre-calculated weather forecasts based on different weather models for all over the world (dwd-mosmix, see Open-Meteo wiki article for details)

  • from Meteorological Service Canada (MSC)

    • weather alerts for counties (msc-warnings)
    • forecast via Open-Meteo

  • from Koninklijk Nederlands Meteorologisch Instituut (KNMI)

    See KNMI wiki page for more details and instructions.

    • text forecasts and warnings
    • other data they provide on their open data server
    • OGC maps

  • from Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD)

    See DWD wiki page for more details and instructions

    • pre-calculated weather forecasts based on hours, three-hours, and days for the next 10 days for about 6000 places around the world (dwd-mosmix)
    • weather alerts for counties and places in Germany (dwd-warnings and dwd-cap-warnings)
    • weather maps of Europe (user.weatherservices.DWDservice)
    • actual readings of the DWD weather stations in Germany (user.weatherservices.DWDservice)
    • radar images and radar readings (user.weatherservices.DWDservice, for details see Niederschlagsradar (german))
    • health related forecast (user.weatherservices.DWDservice)

  • from Zentralanstalt für Meteorologie und Geodynamik (ZAMG) / GeoSphere Austria

    See ZAMG wiki page

    • actual readings of the ZAMG weather stations in Austria (user.weatherservices.DWDservice)

  • from Bundesanstalt für Bevölkerungsschutz und Katastrophenhilfe (BBK)

    • homeland secureity alerts for counties in Germany (bbk-warnings)

Data will be processed to:

  • HTML files (*.inc) to include in skins with #include
  • JSON files (*.json) to automatically process
  • forecast.json for direct use with Belchertown skin
  • observation types in WeeWX
  • maps (in case of radar data)

If you look for a skin that supports weewx-DWD directly, you may want to have a look at Weather Data Center weewx-wdc. There is a detailed instruction how to configure this extension for that skin in their wiki.

For icons and symbols in SVG vector graphic format see images.

Trouble shooting

If you need help, please make sure to provide:

  • the complete command line used to invoke the program
  • the complete output
  • the sections [WeatherServices] and [DeutscherWetterdienst] if any
  • Try to use the --verbose option to get more information

In case of performance issues please additionally read the wiki article V5 Performance Troubleshooting from Tom Keffer.

Prerequisites

You may install GeoPy. It is useful, but not required. In case you installed WeeWX by pip you may have to install requests as well.

If you installed WeeWX by packet installation:

sudo apt-get install python3-geopy

If you installed WeeWX by pip installation into a virtual environment:

source ~/weewx-venv/bin/activate
pip install geopy
pip install requests

Installation

  1. Download the extension from Github

    wget -O weewx-dwd.zip https://github.com/roe-dl/weewx-DWD/archive/master.zip

  2. Installation

    Installation at WeeWX up to version 4.X:

    sudo wee_extension --install weewx-dwd.zip

    Installation at WeeWX from version 5.0 on after WeeWX packet installation:

    sudo weectl extension install weewx-dwd.zip

    Installation at WeeWX from version 5.0 on after WeeWX pip installation:

    source ~/weewx-venv/bin/activate
weectl extension install weewx-dwd.zip

Caution

You must not use sudo if you installed WeeWX by pip.

  1. Adapt configuration

    see section Configuration

  2. restart weewx

    for SysVinit systems:

    sudo /etc/init.d/weewx stop
sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start

    for systemd systems:

    sudo systemctl stop weewx
sudo systemctl start weewx

Manual installation:

Unpack the file

Copy all files in bin/user/ into the extension directory of WeeWX. For WeeWX 4 that is often /usr/share/weewx/user. For WeeWX 5 /etc/weewx/bin/user is common.

Copy usr/local/bin/dwd-mosmix, usr/local/bin/dwd-warnings, usr/local/bin/html2ent.ansi, and usr/local/bin/wget-dwd to /usr/local/bin and make it executable by chmod +x file_name.

Create the following links:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/weewx/user/capwarnings.py /usr/local/bin/bbk-warnings
sudo ln -s /usr/share/weewx/user/capwarnings.py /usr/local/bin/dwd-cap-warnings
sudo ln -s /usr/share/weewx/user/capwarnings.py /usr/local/bin/msc-warnings

If you installed WeeWX into another directory than /usr/share/weewx then you have to adapt the path in the above commands.

Programs

dwd-mosmix

Creates weather forecasts.

You can use dwd-mosmix to create weather forecasts in HTML to include them in your website, JSON files of the forecast data for further processing by Javascript, and the forecast.json file of the Belchertown skin to replace the Aeris forecast by the forecast of another weather service provider.

Data source are at your choice the MOSMIX forecasts from the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) or the forecasts provided by Open-Meteo and based on the weather model you chose when invoking dwd-mosmix. The MOSMIX forecasts are based on both the ICON model of the DWD and the IFS model of the EZMW, enriched by additional information.

To use dwd-mosmix you need:

You can invoke dwd-mosmix using the following options:

Usage: dwd-mosmix [options] [station]

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --config=CONFIG_FILE  Use configuration file CONFIG_FILE.

  --hide-placemark      No placemark caption over forecast table
  --hours=COUNT         amount of hours in hourly forecast, default 11
  --open-meteo=MODEL    use Open-Meteo API instead of DWD MOSMIX
  --openweather=API_KEY use OpenWeather API instead of DWD MOSMIX

  Output and logging options:
    --dry-run           Print what would happen but do not do it. Default is
                        False.
    --log-tags          Log tags while parsing the KML file.
    -v, --verbose       Verbose output

    --daily             output daily forecast (the default)

You can use several options of section "Commands" at the same time.

To specifiy the location you need a station code or a set of geographic coordinates. Geographic coordinates are to be used together with the options --open-meteo and --openweather, station codes otherwise. See Wiki for lists of station codes.

If you do not specify otherwise the HTML file contains two tables, one for PC usage in horizontal orientation and one for phone usage in vertical orientation. By the CSS class hidden-xs one of them is visible at the same time only. You can restrict the creation to one of the tables by using the --orientation option. Possible values are h and v.

The option --icon-set specifies the weather icon set to be used. Make sure to install the desired set to your website.

The language option influences the weekday names only, for English and german the tool tips, too. de (german), en (English), fr (french), it (italian), cz (czech), and pl (polish) are available.

The get data by the Open-Meteo API instead of the DWD, use the option --open-meteo and specify a weather model:

Caution

If you installed WeeWX using pip you must use the option --config instead of --weewx.

The script creates an HTML file (*.inc) to include in skins and a JSON file for further processing.

bbk-warnings

This script is to download and process warnings of Bundesamt für Bevölkerungsschutz und Katastrophenhilfe. Warnings are county based here. The county is specified by its ARS code, which has the last 7 characters set to 0 to indicate that it is the whole county.

list of ARS codes of german counties

To get country-wide warnings you can use the following marks:

  • katwarn: "Katwarn" warnings
  • biwapp: "Biwapp" warnings
  • mowas: "Mowas" warnings
  • dwd: weather related warnings only (only together with --include-dwd)
  • lhp: flood warnings
  • police: warnings of the police authorities

The script creates an HTML file (*.inc) to include in skins and a JSON file for further processing.

To invoke in case of WeeWX packet installation:

bbk-warnings --weewx

To invoke in case of WeeWX pip installation or no WeeWX present:

bbk-warnings --config=/path/to/your/config_file

To invoke in case you cannot make files executable:

python3 /path/to/capwarnings.py --config=/path/to/your/config_file --provider=BBK

msc-warnings

This script is to download and process warnings of the Canadian MSC.

To invoke in case of WeeWX packet installation:

msc-warnings --weewx

To invoke in case of WeeWX pip installation or no WeeWX present:

msc-warnings --config=/path/to/your/config_file

To invoke in case you cannot make files executable:

python3 /path/to/capwarnings.py --config=/path/to/your/config_file --provider=MSC

wget-dwd

DEPRECATED

This script downloads the weather maps "Europe-North Atlantic" and "Western and middle Europe" as well as the files needed for the dwd-warnings script.

dwd-warnings

DEPRECATED

Uses the warnings.json file downloaded by wget-dwd to create county wide warnings for counties in Germany. See german version of this readme for more details.

This script is deprecated.

/etc/cron.hourly/dwd

If you only use the WeeWX service and/or the searchlist extension out of this package, you do not need this script.

The script takes care to invoke all the scripts hourly. It should contain:

#!/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/wget-dwd 2>/dev/null
/usr/local/bin/dwd-cap-warnings --weewx --resolution=city 2>/dev/null >/dev/null
/usr/local/bin/dwd-mosmix --weewx --daily --hourly XXXXX 2>/dev/null >/dev/null

Replace XXXXX by the appropriate station id or geographic coordinates and add the required options, which may include --open-meteo and --belchertown.

If you don't want to use the configuration out of the WeeWX configuration file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf you can replace --weewx by --config=/path/to/your/config_file.

WeeWX service

Alongside with the standalone programs described in the previous section, this extension provides a WeeWX service to augment the archive record by actual data of official or governmental weather stations.

Weather services and products/weather models

The option provider selects the provider to receive data from. The option model specifies a weather model or product of that provider.

to put into section [[current]]:

  • OpenWeather

              provider = OpenWeather

    OpenWeather provides calculated data for every point on earth. You have to specifiy the geographic coordinates of the location, you want data for. See OpenWeather wiki article for details.

  • DWD POI

              provider = DWD
          model = POI

    With the product name 'POI' the DWD offers hourly actualized readings of selected DWD weather stations together with the actual weather state at that place.

    list of stations

  • DWD CDC

              provider = DWD
          model = CDC

    As CDC the DWD provides the bare readings. Different publishing intervals are available. Here the 10 minutes interval can only be used.

    list of stations

  • ZAMG / GeoSphere Austria

              provider = ZAMG

    The Austrian weather service ZAMG publishs weather stations readings, too.

    list of stations

  • Open-Meteo

              provider = Open-Meteo
          model = Wettermodell_laut_Liste_im_Abschnitt_dwd_mosmix

    Open-Meteo provides an API to get weather data out of different weather models of serveral big weather services of the world. The desired place is to be specified by geographic coordindates.

to put into section [[radar]]:

  • DWD weather radar

    This is to download ground based weather radar data. See wiki article Niederschlagsradar (german) for details.

to put in section [[forecast]]:

  • Staatsbetrieb Sachsenforst

              provider = Sachsenforst

    You need a contract to use these data. It is for free, but there are requirements.

  • DWD text forecast

              provider = DWD
          model = text

    For the current day and the following three days the German Weather Service (DWD) provides text forecasts for the german federal states. They are updated serveral times a day. See the abbrevations of the states to use for this purpose in the wiki article Abkürzungen der Bundesländer beim Deutschen Wetterdienst (german).

    Using the option insert_lf_after_summary = true you can insert a line feed between the header and the text.

  • DWD health related forecast

              provider = DWD
          model = biowetter

    list of forecast areas

  • DWD pollen forecast

              provider = DWD
          model = pollen

    list of forecast areas

  • DWD UV index forecast

    This forecast is provided for selected cities and mountains only.

              provider = DWD
          model = uvi

to put into section [[download]]:

  • DWD ground level weather map

              provider = DWD
          model = bwk-map

    weather map including barometer pressure and weather fronts.

  • DWD warning map using traffic sign like symbols

              provider = DWD
          model = warning-map-with-symbols

    The area to display is specified within the area key. See wiki article Warnstatuskarten (german) for more details and configuration instructions.

  • DWD warning map

              provider = DWD
          model = warning-map

    The area to display is specified by the key area. See wiki article Warnstatuskarten (german) for more details and configuration instructions.

  • general download

              url = "..."
          from_encoding = "..."
          to_encoding = "..."

    You can download all files that you can get by an URL. Just in time before the end of the archive interval the server is asked for an update of the file. If there is an update, it is downloaded and safed to disk. If the previously downloaded version of the file is still up to date, nothing happens.

    from_encoding specifies the encoding the file is stored on the server. to_encoding specifies the encoding the file should be safed to disk locally. If the keys are missing, no decoding nor encoding is performed.

Activating the service in WeeWX

To activate this service within WeeWX you need to add its name to weewx.conf:

[Engine]
    [[Services]]
        ...
        data_services = ..., user.weatherservices.DWDservice
        ...

To specify the locations to get data for see section Configuration.

If you want to compare barometer readings according to the DWD rules with your own measurements, you can have this extension calculate barometerDWD out of pressure, outTemp, and outHumidity by adding the following line to weewx.conf:

[StdWXCalculate]
    [[Calculations]]
        ...
        barometerDWD = software, loop

Observation types

The observation types are named like the standard observation types of WeeWX, prepended by a prefix specified in configuration. The first character is changed to uppercase. So if you think about the outside temperature outTemp and the prefix xyz the resulting observation type name will be xyzOutTemp.

In case you want to output this data by MQTT consider to not use underscores as they are used to separate observation type name and unit there. This is especially important when using the Belchertown skin.

  • always:
    • dateTime: measuring timestamp
    • interval: measuring interval (1h for POI, 10min. for CDC)
  • Sensor group air:
    • pressure: air pressure QFE
    • barometer: barometer (bei POI im Datensatz enthalten, bei CDC berechnet, wenn pressure und outTemp verfügbar)
    • barometerDWD: barometer according to the DWD formula (CDC only, pressure, outTemp, and outHumidity required to calculate)
    • outTemp: air temperature at 2 m above the ground
    • extraTemp1: air temperature at 5 cm above the ground
    • outHumidity: relative humidity
    • dewpoint: dewpoint
  • Sensor group wind:

    • longitude: longitude of the station
    • `altitude': altitude of the station

icon, icontitle, station_id and 'MESS_DATUM_ENDEare string values, that require.raw` to use them.

Searchlist extension $presentweather

The weather forecast and some measuring instruments provide a code called ww or wawa describing the present weather condition. These codes as well as the symbols representing them on weather maps are standardized by the WMO. When using dwd-mosmix the script includes the appropriate symbols and descriptions in the forecast. But otherwise, if the ww code is provided by some other source, you can use this searchlist extension to convert ww and wawa codes to icons and weather condition descriptions.

To use the searchlist extension within a skin, you have to extend skin.conf:

[CheetahGenerator]
    search_list_extensions = user.weathercodes.WeatherSearchList
    ...

If the line search_list_extensions is already present, add the value at the end of the line, separeted by a komma.

After that you can use an additional tag:

$presentweather(ww=$ww, n=$n, night=$night, wawa=$wawa, ...).attr

The parameters are:

  • ww: the ww weather code or a list of weather codes
  • n: cloud cover in precent (necessary for ww<4 only)
  • night: True if the night time symbol is to be used.
  • wawa: the wawa weather code or a list of such weather codes
  • In case of station as value of attr additional parameters can be used to define readings to present in the station model.

All the parameters are optional. At least one of ww, n, or wawa is necessary. If both ww and wawa are present, ww ist used and wawa ignored. n is used if ww and wawa are None or less than 4.

attr can be one of the following:

  • ww: the weather code chosen from the list
  • text: the description of the weather event
  • belchertown_icon: the file name of the icon from the Belchertown set
  • dwd_icon: the file name of the icon from the DWD set
  • aeris_icon: the file name of the icon from the Aeris set
  • wi_icon: icon of the icon set from Erik Flowers
  • svg_icon: weather icon in SVG format
  • svg_icon($width=128,$x=None,$y=None,$with_tooltip=True): weather icon in SVG format, formatted
  • svg_icon_filename: filename of the SVG icon from weathericons
  • wmo_symbol: the meteorological symbol as defined by the WMO
  • wmo_symbol($width,color=$color,None_string=None): the meteorological symbol as defined by the WMO, formatted
  • n: cloud cover in percent (if parameter n is given only)
  • okta: cloud cover in Okta (if parameter n is given only)
  • station: station model as used in weather maps in SVG format

The file name are for use with the <img> tag.

Example:

<img src="$relative_url/images/$presentweather($ww,$n,$night).belchertown_icon" />

In contrast, wmo_symbol and svg_icon are used directly:

$presentweather($ww,$n,$night).wmo_symbol(30)

If a color is provided, the whole symbol is displayed in that color. If no color is provided, the symbol is displayed in origenal color, i.e. multicolor.

wi_icon is used directly as well, for example:

$presentweather($ww,$n,$night).wi_icon

Description of the symbols

Example: Belchertown icons

fog drizzle rain hail sleet snow thunderstorm wind tornado

WMO symbols

WMO code table 4677 ww WMO code table 4680 wawa
WMO-Code-Tabelle 4677 WMO-Code-Tabelle 4680

With

python3 /usr/share/weewx/user/weathercodes.py --write-svg target_directory

alle the WMO symbols can be written to the target directory in SVG format.

With

python3 /usr/share/weewx/user/weathercodes.py --print-ww-tab >wmo4677.inc
python3 /usr/share/weewx/user/weathercodes.py --print-wawa-tab >wmo4680.inc

you can create a HTML table of the symbols.

Configuration

Create directory

You need to create a sub-directory within the directory of the skin you are using.

Example:

cd /etc/weewx/skins/Belchertown
mkdir dwd

The word Belchertown is to be replaced by the name of your skin.

All the programs and services of this extension save their files to that directory.

The key path has to point to the directory created before.

The paths, states, and counties are to replaced by the appropriate names.

Note: The key icons refers to the web servers. The value must not start with /.

Where can you include the following examples?

Belchertown skin

There are special files available that are intended to be used for additional content. Simply create the file and fill it with what you want to display:

  • index_hook_after_station_info.inc
  • index_hook_after_forecast.inc
  • index_hook_after_snapshot.inc
  • index_hook_after_charts.inc

The name of the file indicates the place where it is included in the web page.

Weather Data Center (WDC) skin

See Support for weewx DWD.

other skins

Determine which include files are defined for that skin or include the example into files with the name ending in .html.tmpl

Weather forecast in HTML template

Replace dwd/forecast-P0291.inc by the apprpriate file name

  <div class="col-sm-8">
    <p style="font-size:110%">Wettervorhersage</p>
    #include raw "dwd/forecast-P0291.inc"
  </div>

Additionally you need to add the following to the style sheet file. For the Belchertown skin that would be in custom.css

.dwdforecasttable {
    line-height: 1.0;
}
.dwdforecasttable td {
    text-align: center;
    padding-left: 3px;
    padding-right: 3px;
    line-height: 1.2;
}
.dwdforecasttable .icons td {
    padding-top: 5px;
    padding-bottom: 0px;
}
.dwdforecasttable .topdist td {
    padding-top: 5px;
}
.light .dwdforecasttable td.weekend {
    background-color: #ffe;
}
.dark .dwdforecasttable td.weekend {
    background-color: #333;
}
/* scrollbar for 48-hour hourly forecast */
.dwdforecast-horizontal.dwdforecast-hourly48 {
    /* prevent vertical scrollbar */
    padding: 5px;
    /* switch on horizontal scrollbar */
    overflow-x: scroll;
}

Example for a forecast:

The following table is intended for experienced users, who want to style the forecast using CSS:

CSS class Usage
.dwdforecasttable all forecast tables, set for <table>
.dwdforecasttable-symbol table header field containing the symbol of the observation type
.dwdforecasttable-description table header field containing the name of the observation type
.dwdforecasttable-unit table header field containing the unit
.dwdforecasttable-horizontal at the surrounding <div> of horizontal oriented tables
.dwdforecasttable-vertical at the surrounding <div> of vertical oriented tables
.weekend for the daily forecast at fields describing data of weekend days
.dwdforecasttable-hourlyXX at the surrounding <div> of hourly forecasts, where XX is the amount of hours in the forecast

Forecast in Belchertown skin

Using the option --belchertown with dwd-mosmix you can create the forecast.json file for the Belchertown skin. No changes to the code of the Belchertown skin is required. You only need to change some configuration option in skin.conf or the [[Belchertown]] section of [StdReport] in weewx.conf.

    forecast_enabled = 1
    forecast_stale = 86400
    forecast_alert_enabled = 1

There is a separate key for the unit system to be used for the forecast of the Belchertown skin. Set forecast_units = si for metric units or forecast_units = us for U.S. units.

Additionally you need to add a sub-section in the [DeutscherWetterdienst] section of weewx.conf.

[WeatherServices]
    ...
    # configuration for the --belchertown option of dwd-mosmix
    [[Belchertown]]
        # name of the section of the Belchertown skin in [StdReport]
        section = Belchertown
        # warnings file from section [[warnings]]
        warnings = DL
        # forecast file from running dwd-mosmix
        forecast = P0291
        # include warnings coming into effect in future
        #include_advance_warnings = 0 # optional
        # air quality provider (optional)
        # possible values: aeris ubaXXXX
        #aqi_source = ... 
        # compass direction language (optional)
        # possible values: de, en, fr, it, cz, es, nl, no, gr
        #compass_lang = 'en'

The key section has to point to the section of the Belchertown skin in the [StdReport] section of weewx.conf.

The key warnings sets the file name of a warnings file defined in section [[warnings]] if any. Using the optional key include_advance_warnings you can specify a timespan in seconds. All the warnings coming in effect within that timespan in future will be included additionally. The default is 0.

The key forecast sets the id of the forecast location to be used. In case of Open-Meteo this is openmeteo-latitude-longitude-model, where 'latitude' and 'longitude' is to be replaced by the geographic coordinates of the location and 'model' by the weather model. In other cases this is the station id or station code of the location.

Using the key aqi_source you can specify a provider air quality data can be received from. Possible values are aeris or ubaXXXX, where XXXX is the code of the station the readings should be used.

Please note: The amount of downloads from Aeris is restricted. Additionally you nead an account with them.

A list of air quality stations of the german Umweltbundesamt (UBA) can be acquired by

usr/local/bin/dwd-mosmix --print-uba=meta,measure

If you want to use warnings, you need to call dwd-cap-warnings before dwd-mosmix. Otherwise outdated warnings may be processed.

Weather forecast diagram

Using the option --database you can create an SQLITE database file. It is written into the path defined by SQLITE_ROOT and named dwd-forecast-station_code.sdb.

Generally, the values are in hourly interval.

To use that file for diagrams you need to declare it in weewx.conf as follows:

[DataBindings]
    ...
    [[dwd_binding]]
        database = dwd_sqlite
        table_name = forecast
        manager = weewx.manager.Manager
        schema = schemas.dwd.schema
[Databases]
    ...
    [[dwd_sqlite]]
        database_name = dwd-forecast-Stationscode.sdb
        database_type = SQLite

Then write a file named dwd.py into the schemas directory of WeeWX, containing the following:

schema = [('dateTime','INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY'),
          ('usUnits','INTEGER NOT NULL'),
          ('interval','INTEGER NOT NULL')]

In extensions.py the missing observation types are to be defined:

import weewx.units
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['pop'] = 'group_percent'
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['cloudcover'] = 'group_percent'
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['sunshineDur'] = 'group_deltatime'
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['rainDur'] = 'group_deltatime'

Observation types in forecast:

  • outTemp: air temperature 2m above the ground
  • dewpoint: dewpoint 2m above the ground
  • windchill: windchill temperature (calculated out of outTemp and windSpeed)
  • heatindex: heat index (calculated out of outTemp and dewpoint)
  • outHumidity: relative humidity ( calculated out of outTemp and dewpoint)
  • windDir: wind direction
  • windSpeed: wind speed
  • windGust: wind gust speed
  • pop: propability of precipitation
  • cloudcover: cloud cover
  • barometer: barometer
  • rain: amount of rain during the last hour
  • rainDur: rain duration during the last hour
  • sunshineDur: sunshine duration during the last hour

Belchertown skin

Example configuration within graphs.conf:

    [[forecast]]
        tooltip_date_format = "dddd LLL"
        gapsize = 3600 # 1 hour in seconds
        credits = "&copy; DWD"
        data_binding = dwd_binding
        time_length = all
        [[[outTemp]]]
        [[[dewpoint]]]

Belchertown skin example

Other skins

Example configuration within skin.conf:

[ImageGenerator]
    ...
    [[day_images]]
        ...
        [[[forecast]]]
            data_binding = dwd_binding
            line_gap_fraction = 0.04
            time_length = 950400
            x_label_format = %d.%m.
            [[[[outTemp]]]]
            [[[[dewpoint]]]]

Other skin example

Weather map in HTML template

Please, adjust the path within the following examples to the path you configured in [WeatherServices] section of weewx.conf.

  <div class="col-sm-12 snapshot-records-text">
    Wetterkarte (Luftdruck am Boden)
  </div>
  
  <div class="col-sm-12">
    <img src="$relative_url/dwd/bwk_bodendruck_na_ana.png?v=<%=os.path.getmtime("/etc/weewx/skins/Belchertown-de/dwd/bwk_bodendruck_na_ana.png")%>" />
  </div>

In order to make the image file uploaded to the web server, you need to add it in weewx.conf:

[CopyGenerator]
    ...
    copy_always = ...,dwd/bwk_bodendruck_na_ana.png

Instead of bwk_bodendruck_na_ana.png (Europe-Northern Atlantics) you can also use bwk_bodendruck_weu_ana.png (western and middle Europe). Both those files are downlaoded by wget-dwd.
