Hourly Weather Card by @decompil3d

An hourly weather card for Home Assistant. Visualize upcoming weather conditions as a colored horizontal bar.

Installation

Easiest method:

✨ Install via HACS

Alternative method:

1. Download hourly-weather.js from the Releases page
2. Upload to /www/hourly-weather/hourly-weather.js (via Samba, File Editor, SSH, etc.)
3. Visit the Resources page in your Home Assistant install and add /hourly-weather/hourly-weather.js as a JavaScript Module.
4. Refresh your browser

Usage

This card will show in the "Add card" modal. It has a GUI editor for configuring settings.

If you prefer YAML, here is a sample config:

type: custom:hourly-weather
entity: weather.my_hourly_weather_entity
num_segments: 18 # optional, defaults to 12
name: Next 18 hours # optional, defaults to "Hourly Weather"

Choosing the right entity

This card is focused on displaying hourly weather data. If you try selecting a weather entity that provides daily forecasts, it will show a warning. I've tested with the OpenWeatherMap integration using the onecall_hourly mode and that works very well.

ℹ️ NOTE: If your selected weather entity provides forecasts in increments of greater than one hour at a time, each segment of the bar will be for one segment, not one hour.

If you already use OpenWeatherMap for daily data, you can add a second integration of the same component for hourly -- just adjust the latitude or longitude a tiny bit (i.e. change the last decimal by 1). Otherwise, the integration may complain of a duplicate unique ID.

Templating

The following options allow Home Assistant Jinja templates as values:

• num_segments
• offset
• label_spacing

You may use any valid template expression that produces a string or number. For example, you can define offset based on the current time of day so that you see the next day's weather:

name: Tomorrow
num_segments: 24
offset: |
  {{ 24 - now().hour }}
label_spacing: 4

Or maybe show the rest of today's weather:

name: Today
num_segments: |
  {{ 24 - now().hour }}
label_spacing: |
  {% set segments = 24 - now().hour %}
  {{ 4 if segments > 12 else 2 }}

Color Options

colors is specified as an object containing one or more of the keys listed below and values that are valid CSS colors. Invalid color values will be discarded and will trigger a warning.

Some conditions will default to whatever the value is of some other condition. For example, fog will default to whatever cloudy is.

Key	Default
clear-night	#000
cloudy	#777
fog	same as cloudy
hail	#2b5174
lightning	same as rainy
lightning-rainy	same as rainy
partlycloudy	#b3dbff
pouring	same as rainy
rainy	#44739d
snowy	#fff
snowy-rainy	same as partlycloudy
sunny	#90cbff
windy	same as sunny
windy-variant	same as sunny
exceptional	#ff9d00

Sample colors configuration

colors:
  sunny: '#bbccee' # note that hex colors must be quoted
  snowy-rainy: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8) # rgba works (and hsla too)
  exceptional: red # as do valid CSS color names

Upgrades

Version 3 ➡️ 4

In version 4.x, the num_hours option was deprecated in favor of num_segments. This simplifies the card and makes it clear that it operates on whatever size forecast segment your entity provides. The num_hours option still works, but num_segments takes precedence, if set. num_hours will be removed in a later major version of the card.
