Hi ibat.

First thank you for your feedback!

I understand that what you saw is not intuitive but I checked the underlying data and nothing looks wrong. Let me explain.

I saw it too.

On the top right a ! in a triangle, and when I click it says:
"Gusts of 70 kph are possible.
Start Friday 17 Nov 2023 08:59
duration 33h"
but if I scroll to Fr the winds listed are max 7 m/s. How can that be?

btw you show the wind speed in En when set to
standard in m/s
imperial in mi/h
metric in m/s <-- I would expect kph here
The alerts description is not generated by Taranis nor Openweathermap. It's source is explicitly credited and the description is displayed unchanged.There's no way to control the units used in that text, nor the language.

The hourly forecast data computed by Openweathermap contain values for wind gusts and speed ; I checked them and they're coherent with alert text and the displayed values.


(note that I requested data with metric units)

But note that Tatanis doesn't display the value for "wind gusts". One possible enhancement would be to display those values in place of wind speed when the value is greater. I created a Github issue to track this proposal. May be with italic font to make the distinction clear.

What do you think?

Replying to myself: I understand that my proposal is silly since wind gusts always have greater speed than the average hourly or daily speed... Intelligent people comment on the Github issue please...

Have a nice (windy) day!
