Re: Accuweather Conky Script

Hot air from Africa has been flowing over southern Europe for a long time.
The worst is currently in Spain and France.

AccuWeather developers have added the Heat index.
That's nice, but the  curr-cond   file no longer works properly:

Open the  accuweather   script and replace the line:

              sed -i -e 's/.*weathericons\///' -e 's/^.*>//g' -e 's/°.*$//g' -e '/RealFeel®/d' -e '/RealFeel Shade™/,+1d' -e '/RealFeel Shade/,+1d' -e '/Indoor Humidity/,+1d' -e '/^$/d' $HOME/Accuweather_conky_script/curr_cond_temp

with:

              sed -i -e 's/.*weathericons\///' -e 's/^.*>//g' -e 's/°.*$//g' -e '/RealFeel®/d' -e '/RealFeel Shade™/,+1d' -e '/RealFeel Shade/,+1d' -e '/Indoor Humidity/,+1d' -e '/^$/d' -e '/Heat Index/,+1d' $HOME/Accuweather_conky_script/curr_cond_temp

 

As you can see from the screenshots, 'beautiful' days with lots of sunshine are expected here. 

Note *
Please don't wait for the Heat Index to appear for your location, but update your  accuweather   script now.

Re: Accuweather Conky Script

This is becoming really frustrating.

It happened again.
This time they changed the Request Headers.

CURRENT FORECAST

Replace:

I don't know who's crazier here.
Either it's the AccuWeather developers or me, because I fixed the script again?

People, it's summer — go somewhere and relax.

Re: Accuweather Conky Script

Thanks, marens, although I note that the script is also showing the wrong info for other current weather items, eg wind direction icon (I get a weather condition icon), wind speed (I get "max UV" or other UV info), humidity, pressure. 

The weather condition/forecast icons/text, temperatures, are working.

No worries if you don't feel like doing more patching though.  I was not going to mention anything, except that you just posted some fixes.  :-)
