Re: Windy.com on weather network block
Not yet it seem. It will require a re-write of the Weather Networks block and the main setup.php to add the windy api key.
I started to but got pulled away for another ongoing project.
For everyone else's info... Windy and meteobridge has updated there software to fix a few of the bugs incorporated into the first few versions. Just reboot meteobridge and if need be set to load newest software at boot.
To see it in action go to my windy api site:

Hi andyk1
How do you add windy.com to meteobridge? I cannot find it in the network list (Meteobridge 3.9 (Feb 5 2019, build 12713), FW 1.4)...
Thanks, Martin

Re: Windy.com on weather network block
I will see if Windy could replace WU. I know Windy very well, it is a Czech company with very good reputation and my personal view of them is nowhere near what I think and have thought in the past about WU.

Yes I have also been watching them for a good while and considered the same. Would be a very good replacement for WU Tomas is also very responsive to questions.

Re: Windy.com on weather network block
In Meteobridge System set Version Control to " get newest on boot" and reboot meteobridge.
After reboot go to Weather Network Tab, go to the bottom, "Add more Weather Networks and choose Windy.
Add your api key, Set Upload interval to 5 min and 2 retries and remember to click save a the bottom.
It should not need another reboot and start working.
It will need approximately 5 to 10 min for the readings to be added to Wendy's site. Use your windy ID: not api key to observe your windy site.
example: https://www.windy.com/station/pws-f075a2d9
If need be.. enter: station your ID# in the upper left search bad as "station f075a2d9" The f075.... is my ID, enter your own.
***Windy does not work correctly in Windows explorer, even with updates.. Use Chrome, Firefox or your preferred browser.***

Re: Windy.com on weather network block
Got mine up and running a few days ago, seems to be working great now. Windy does look cool.
