Weather + Rules + Adding Snapshot

[adtwomey]

@H102

For watering your plants based on weather you will need a weather binding or use some sensors for detecting rain/moisture and rules to control your items.

Ok @rlkoshak sent me looking for Yahoo Weather binding what I can see in OpenHab 2.4 but he also said that he think most Wunderground users on this forum have migrated to OpenWeatherMap.

How to add weatherunderground binding

I looking at something to show the weather on HaBpanel and after some more research I use a rules file to use watering system when too dry. By way it will be my 1st go at this. Really only be following mksmarthous.

`
So that how I got asking about OpenWeathMap

@H102

If your new to OH try starting small, added the weather binding, create your things and items then start using simple rules to control them. Once you get the feel of OH you can start adding more items and complex rules.

Thanks just looking for the good best but I need to crawl before I can walk. What best weather binding you recommend & do you know of any others bindings, that I can’t find yet.
