The openweathermap weather platform uses OpenWeatherMap as a source for current meteorological data for your location.

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

You need an API key which is free but requires a registration.

Weather

To add OpenWeatherMap to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
weather:
  - platform: openweathermap
    api_key: YOUR_API_KEY

{% configuration %} api_key: description: Your API key for OpenWeatherMap. required: true type: string name: description: Name to use in the frontend. required: false type: string default: OpenWeatherMap mode: description: "Can specify hourly, daily of freedaily. Select hourly for a three-hour forecast, daily for daily forecast or freedaily for a five days forecast with the free tier." required: false type: string default: "hourly" latitude: description: Latitude of the location to display the weather. required: false type: float default: "The latitude in your configuration.yaml file." longitude: description: Longitude of the location to display the weather. required: false type: float default: "The longitude in your configuration.yaml file." {% endconfiguration %}

This platform is an alternative to the openweathermap sensor.

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: openweathermap
    api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
    monitored_conditions:
      - weather

{% configuration %} api_key: description: Your API key for OpenWeatherMap. required: true type: string name: description: Additional name for the sensors.
