|

The `environment_canada` weather platforms provide meteorological data for Canadian locations from [Environment Canada](https://weather.gc.ca/index_e.html).
|
||||
The Environment Canada integration provides meteorological data for Canadian locations from [Environment and Climate Change Canada](https://weather.gc.ca/index_e.html).
|
||||
|
||||
The following device types and data are supported:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Location Selection](#location-selection)
|
||||
- [Weather](#weather)
|
||||
- [Sensor](#sensor)
|
||||
- [Alert TTS Script](#alert-tts-script)
|
||||
- [Camera](#camera)
|
||||
{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}
|
||||
|
||||
## Location Selection
|
||||
|
||||
The `weather` and `sensor` platforms automatically determine which weather station's data to use. However, as station coordinates provided by Environment Canada are somewhat imprecise, in some cases you may need to override the automatic selection to use the desired station.
|
||||
The integration automatically determines the closest weather station based on the latitude and longitude specified. If integration-specific coordinates are not provided, the coordinates configured for Home Assistant are used.
|
||||
|
||||
For these platforms, the location to use is determined according to the following hierarchy:
|
||||
You can also specify a weather station to use by providing a identification code of the form `AB/s0000123`, based on those listed in [this CSV file](https://dd.weather.gc.ca/citypage_weather/docs/site_list_towns_en.csv).
|
||||
|
||||
- Location ID specified in platform configuration (optional)
|
||||
- Closest station to latitude/longitude specified in platform configuration (optional)
|
||||
- Closest station to latitude/longitude specified in Home Assistant configuration (default)
|
||||
## Entities
|
||||
|
||||
The `camera` platform dynamically builds imagery using a latitude/longitude as a center point. Radar station IDs are also supported for backwards compatibility.
|
||||
The integration will create the entities listed below. Note that many of the entities are disabled by default and can be enabled via the Configuration / Entities screen.
|
||||
|
||||
For this platform, the location to use is determined according to the following hierarchy:
|
||||
### Weather
|
||||
|
||||
- Station ID specified in platform configuration (optional)
|
||||
- Latitude/longitude specified in platform configuration (optional)
|
||||
- Latitude/longitude specified in Home Assistant configuration (default)
|
||||
- Current conditions and daily forecast
|
||||
- Current conditions and hourly forecast
|
||||
|
||||
### Camera
|
||||
|
||||
## Weather
|
||||
- Loop of radar imagery from the last 3 hours
|
||||
|
||||
The `environment_canada` weather platform populates a weather card with Environment Canada current conditions and forecast [data](https://weather.gc.ca/canada_e.html).
|
||||
By default, the radar entity uses the rain layer from 1 April to 30 November and the snow layer from 1 December to 31 March.
|
||||
|
||||
To add Environment Canada weather to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
||||
### Sensors
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||||
weather:
|
||||
- platform: environment_canada
|
||||
```
|
||||
#### Conditions and Forecasts
|
||||
|
||||
- The platform checks for new data every 10 minutes, and the source data is typically updated hourly within 10 minutes after the hour.
|
||||
- If no name is given, the weather entity will be named `weather.<station_name>`.
|
||||
- The platform automatically determines which weather station to use based on the system's latitude/longitude settings. For greater precision, it is also possible to specify either:
|
||||
- A specific station code of the form `AB/s0000123` based on those listed in [this CSV file](https://dd.weather.gc.ca/citypage_weather/docs/site_list_towns_en.csv), or
|
||||
- A specific latitude/longitude
|
||||
- Current condition
|
||||
- Forecast summary
|
||||
- [Icon code](https://dd.weather.gc.ca/citypage_weather/docs/Current_Conditions_Icons-Icones_conditions_actuelles.pdf) of current condition
|
||||
- Barometric pressure
|
||||
- Pressure tendency
|
||||
- Humidity
|
||||
- Visibility
|
||||
- UV index

### Alert TTS Script
|

- Endings
|
||||
|

If you would like to have alerts announced via a text-to-speech service, you can use a script similar to the following:
|
||||
The alert sensors use the number of current alerts as their state, with an attribute containing the title of each alert.
|
||||
|
||||
## Template Sensors
|
||||
|
||||
The configuration snippet below adds a useful [template sensors](/integrations/template/) showing the current "feels like" temperature among air temperature, humidex, and wind chill.
|
||||
|
||||
Replace `NAME` with the name used to configure your integration.

## Camera
|
||||
|
||||
The `environment_canada` camera platform displays Environment Canada meteorological [radar imagery](https://weather.gc.ca/radar/index_e.html).
|
||||
|
||||
To add Environment Canada radar imagery to your installation, add the desired lines from the following example to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||||
camera:
|
||||
- platform: environment_canada
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- If no name is given, the camera entity will be named `camera.environment_canada_radar`.
|
||||
- The platform dynamically builds imagery based on a latitude/longitude center point. This center point can be specified using:
|
||||
- The latitude/longitude of the Home Assistant installation (default)
|
||||
- A specific latitude/longitude for the platform (optional)
|
||||
- A specific radar station ID from [this table](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_weather_radar_network#List_of_radars). The code must be in the form `XXX` or `CXXXX`, i.e., remove the leading `C` only if the result forms a three-letter code, otherwise, include it. Valid values include `XFT` for Ottawa or `CASBV` for Montreal. (optional, for backwards compatibility)
