Figure 13. Forecast components
For the NWS provider, 7 Forecast components are created by default, based upon the Outlook value specified in the NwsWeatherProvider component. Each Forecast component contains a number of read-only status properties for predicted weather items, as well as sunrise and sunset times
You can drag any Forecast component onto a Px page for an iconic-based Forecast View.
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Status (Weather) | read-only |
Indicates the current weather condition. Typically {ok} if a connection was made. Other possible statuses include:
alarm — if a hazardous condition is imminent/detected in an NWS provider-issued advisory. If alarm, related information is also in properties Weather Summary and State. fault — if the weather provider references an invalid weather station. stale — if a weather update connection fails, or for a NwsWeatherProvider, if the reported observation time (Observation property) is more than 2 hours in the past. All other properties with status (Sundown, Temp, State, Humidity, and so on) also assume this stale status. The timeout for this “failed connection at update attempt” to a NWS provider is fixed at 15 seconds. |
| Last Update | read-only |
Displays the date and timestamp of the station’s last weather report update, in Baja AbsTime format.
|
| Sunrise | read-only |
Displays the timestamp for sunrise, in Baja Time format.
|
| Sunset | read-only |
Displays the timestamp for sunset, in Baja Time format.
|
| High | Predicted high temperature as a StatusNumeric value. | |
| Low | Predicted low temperature as a StatusNumeric value. | |
| Weather Summary | read-only |
Summarizes the current weather conditions, as a StatusString value. This text string is evaluated and converted to a State
enumerated value (next property). If CurrentConditions has an alarm status, this describes the alarm condition.
|
| State | read-only |
Displays a StatusEnum value derived from the received weather summary text. Enumerations indicate hazardous conditions based
on information received in provider-issued advisories.
|
| Ozone | read-only |
Displays the level of ozone in the air in parts per million (ppm) as a StatusNumeric value.
|
| Particulate Matter | read-only |
Displays the level of particulate matter in the air in micrograms per cubic meter (ug/m^3), as a StatusNumeric value.
