Weatherlink Fullscreen Embed Changes
« on: June 30, 2020, 10:13:04 AM »
Has anyone noticed that the wind direction beside the wind speed has changed to degrees instead of the letter direction? I cannot find a setting anywhere to change it back from degrees to the letter direction.

Also, they have added an Air Quality field. I cannot find any information on this. Hoping someone else knows what’s coming!

I see it on my station as well. Maybe there is a setting for this.

For the AQI, maybe there is a sensor coming?

I found something under "My Account >> Unit Measurements".

The last item on the list is Air Quality Index :: USA :: Edit

Follow the "Edit" link and it will take you to the pop-up page showing a variety of locations and an explanation off to the right. You can scroll through it.

From this, I don't think that there is a sensor, rather a look-up for the data. So far, it doesn't seem to be active.

I didn't find anything about the wind direction being in degrees instead of compass points...

(I meant this in terms of being able to restore the compass point settings, I do see the numeric direction assumed to be degrees in the banners and other screens...)

Well it has changed to a number (only) without any qualifier, no Deg symbol etc on any browser of mine. Are you seeing something different apart form the number?

Correct. Just a number. No degree symbol. Very confusing until I figured out what it was.

If anyone finds a way to restore the cardinal/ordinal nomenclature in lieu of the "degrees", I would be interested in knowing how to do this.

The wind direction seems to have reverted to the cardinal/ordinal scheme by itself. (N, NE, E, SE, etc...)
