The wwlln integration displays lightning strike information from the
World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN).
Entities are generated, updated and removed automatically with each update
from the feed. Each entity defines latitude and longitude and will be shown
on the default map automatically, or on a map card by defining the source
wwlln. The distance (in kilometers or miles, depending on your unit system)
is available as the state of each entity.
New data is fetched every 10 minutes. Because data from the WWLLN may vary in terms
of how real-time it is, the default window parameter is set to 1 hour to ensure that as
many strikes are caught as possible.
Configuration
To retrieve data from the WWLLN, add the following to your configuration.yaml
file:
wwlln:
{% configuration %}
latitude:
description: The latitude you want to monitor; defaults to the value defined in configuration.yaml.
required: false
type: float
longitude:
description: The longitude you want to monitor; defaults to the value defined in configuration.yaml.
required: false
type: float
radius:
description: The radius around your location to monitor; defaults to 25 km or mi (depending on the unit system defined in your configuration.yaml).
required: false
type: integer
window:
description: The amount of time before now for which strikes should be considered "active" and shown in the UI. Note that a window of less than 1 hour may cause Home Assistant to miss events.
required: false
type: time
{% endconfiguration %}
State Attributes
The following state attributes are available for each entity in addition to the standard ones:
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| latitude | Latitude of the lightning strike. |
| longitude | Longitude of the lightning strike. |
| source | wwlln to be used in conjunction with the geo_location automation trigger. |
| external_id | The external ID used in the feed to identify the earthquake in the feed. |
| publication_date | Date and time when this event occurred. |
