Re

not so

Sprinkles late must be Quelques averses en fin de journée & not arrose tard

^ I assumed it was because MyForecast has a different weather description style than Accuweather.

That's why I always use English.
I know all the phrases well, even though my English is bad.

In my configuration the time data needs to be changed like this:
line 85

${voffset -60}${goto 20}${time %H} h\
${goto 95}${tztime GMT-3 %H} h\
${goto 170}${tztime GMT-4 %H} h\

in

${voffset -60}${goto 20}${tztime GMT-3 %H} h\
${goto 95}${tztime GMT-4 %H} h\
${goto 170}${tztime GMT-5 %H} h\

Hello

As usual, your script works a treat. As for the translation, I’m adding this, and then at some point I’ll have them all .

##### traduction moi forecast #######

Why MyForecast?

There are two main reasons:

Redirect to the nearest airport
Rare update

My location is not redirected to the airport, but is updated every three hours.
This is happening to me:

TAD: MyForecast:

MF Conky:

Pictures speak louder than words.

I just finished mf-conky.

It takes time to complete testing, but so far everything looks good.
This conky is based on my tad-conky:

As you know, I use the old syntax/format and share with you only text.
If you want, you can test with me.

You need to set in the configuration:

1) text_buffer_size 1024
2) minimum_size 460 0

Hourly Images Bug

When the hourly forecast shows images after midnight, the image for tomorrow's daily forecast appears.

The bug has been fixed.
This is what that part of the myforecast script should look like:

#### HOURLY FORECAST

## Images
cat $HOME/MyForecast/hourly/hourly_raw | grep 'src="assets/img/icons/' | sed -n '2,10p' | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//' -e 's/<td> <img src="assets\/img\/icons\///' -e 's/<img src="assets\/img\/icons\///' -e 's/" style="width:30px;"\/><\/td>//' -e '/36px/d'| sed 's/\(.png\).*/\1/' > $HOME/MyForecast/hourly/images

Testing MyForecast Conky (Improvements)

Testing is the only way to improve something or remove bugs.
Two interesting things happened tonight.

Missing image for current weather conditions

I easily found the reason when I looked at the "now" file (line 1).

There is no such image (cw_no_report_icon.png) inside the myforecast-icons folder.
I remembered that the tad-icons folder contains the corresponding image (wt-36.png)

Here you can download 36.png image:
https://i.postimg.cc/vHDjQ10h/36.png

Just Copy/Paste into the myforecast-icons.

Now you need to change the myforecast script.
This part should look like this:

#### NOW FORECAST

## Image
cat $HOME/MyForecast/weather_raw | grep 'src="assets/img/icons' | sed -n '1p' | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//' -e 's/<img src="assets\/img\/icons\///' -e 's/"//' | awk '{print $1}' | sed 's/cw_no_report_icon/36/' > $HOME/MyForecast/now

This is how it looks in Conky:

No Wind (Calm)

I expected that to happen, but I didn't know what it looked like on the website.

As you can see, the wind speed is 0 km/h, but the wind direction (N) is still shown.

I decided to play around a bit with the myforecast script and try to display everything in Conky the way we're used to.
This part should look like this:

## Wind Icon
ws=$(sed -n '6p' $HOME/MyForecast/now | sed 's/ .*//')
wd=$(cat $HOME/MyForecast/weather_raw | grep '<sup>' | sed -n '1p' | sed 's/.*<sup>/<sup>/' | sed 's/<\/sup>.*//' | sed 's/<sup>//')
                        
  if [[ "$ws" == "0" ]]; then
  
      cp $HOME/MyForecast/wind/CLM.png $HOME/MyForecast/wind_0.png
      
      sed -i '5d' $HOME/MyForecast/now
      
      sed -i "5s/^/N\/A\n/" $HOME/MyForecast/now
      
      sed -i '6d' $HOME/MyForecast/now
      
      sed -i "6s/^/Calm\n/" $HOME/MyForecast/now

        else
    
           cp $HOME/MyForecast/wind/$wd.png $HOME/MyForecast/wind_0.png
      
  fi

From the myforecast script I modified the "now" file to get what I want.
I won't go into details, it's best to see the result because a picture speaks louder than words:

Enjoy.

P.S.
Testing continues.
