Saratoga EC Script - Windchills in hourly forecast.
« on: January 05, 2025, 09:26:12 PM »
Is it me or did the windchill used to be displayed in the hourly forecast? I see that EC has it on their site but it doesn't display for me or in the demo. Thanks.

The JSON returned from the EC for the hourly forecast doesn't contain an explicit windchill value, but the feelsLike value seems to contain that value as shown on the EC site.  The current ec-forecast.php script doesn't display/format/use the feelsLike value at this time.

The old XML files (and ec-forecast script) did contain a windchill entry (when appropriate) and that was displayed when it appeared.
