The `ipma` weather platform uses the [Instituto Português do Mar e Atmosfera](https://www.ipma.pt/) as a source for current and forecast meteorological data.

There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:

- Sensor
  - Risk of Fire for your location
  - UV Index for your district
- Weather (current state and forecast)

{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}

IPMA provides both *hourly* (72h) and *daily* (10 days) forecasts, but you must choose which one will be exposed by the weather entity during initial setup of the integration.
