Tempest weather station

Proposed change Wind data is available via WebSockets via two different types of messages. There is a `rapid_wind` message that gives Speed/Direction and arrives at about a 3minute interval. There is also an `obs_st` message that gives averages over a time window. Added extended attributes to explain data so

I have a Tempest. I use the lux value to control when lights come on, instead of time. I use it to prevent my inflatable holiday decorations from blowing up when it's too windy or when there are near by lighting strikes. I use the rain gauge to determine if my garden sprinkler comes on or not.

Tempest is great, better than the netatmo. Low maintenance and reliable local API. If you're really interested in tracking precipitation amounts and rates in real-time, the haptic sensor is not the best. (Netatmo's rain gauge was better in my experience.)They do some post processing magic on their cloud API and will revise accumulations up and down.

I have a Tempest weather station for that ;-) It's costy but solar powered, and fun to have local wind speed. direction, and accurate rain sensing, with measurement.The temperature specs are: -40°C to 60°C (-40°F to 140°F), sampled every minute, accurate to +/-0.2°C.

Tempest Weather System, one of my favorite devices too.

Id say these are my top 3 aside from Lutron. 1. Anything Shelly is really good. 2. Tempest Weather Station 3. Yamaha AV with MusicCast

I use Tempest and have local automations for lightning detection (in conjunction with blitzortung for pool safety), it’s raining, solar radiation (heat load calculations), and ambient light. I don’t “need” any of these but as part of the hobby it’s great. Easy to set up and works great for hyper local weather (and history!) if nothing else.

Previously with the Tempest2MQTT Add-On it was possible to have a weather entity based on the Tempest that (appeared) offline. [code] I would like to have a similar entity using the new WeatherFlow (core) Home Assistant (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/weatherflow) integration but I have not found it possible. I have gotten a weather entity from this HACS offering, but it has a cloud dependency. Is there any way to remove the cloud dependency so I can increase the refresh?

I am having the same problem. Trying to set up a new home assistant instance. When integrating to the Tempest weather station, I get the same error as the original poster. I tried https://weatherflow.github.io/Tempest/api/swagger/ as @jeeftor posted above. That works fine with my personal api token. I am able to utilize the API to view my station. But no luck with home assistant

I have a Tempest by WeatherFlow and like it. It doesn't have a boolean that indicates "currently raining", but it does measure the current rain intensity (in/h).....any value above 0 would be considered "currently raining".

The problem All weather flow sensors went unavailable after newest core update. Restarted tempest hub, rebooted HA, etc etc. no change. The forecast (cloud) integration is working just not the local. Local is more important because it has lux and other entities that are heavily relied on. ### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue? core-2026.4.3 ### What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core? Previous ### What type of installation are you running? Home Assistant OS ### Integration causing the issue Weatherflow (local) ### Link to integration documentation on our …
