Night time Metar Icon...

[Weather Display]

there is a dawn or dusk that appears in the description (and also the WD icon changes to dawn or dusk)

[ALITTLEweird1]

I looked through here for a Number...

http://www.tnetweather.com/Newclientraw-desc.txt

but this list doesnt show dusk or dawn. But yet again, this list may be out of date.

I understand icons get set from the clientraw data. But i do not see anything in the client file that says when its Overcast for night time. I ask cause, with anoles banner script, there isnt a overcast option in the script. And if i knew or if there is a description in the clientraw to set a overcast/nighttime icon I could add that option to the banner script. And also, along with the overcast/night time thing...Is there anything in the clientraw that says when its time to set Dusk or Dawn Icons?
 I hope that all makes sense.

because dawn or dusk is not a weather condtion, then,no, there is not at this time, a icon number associated with that

there are icon number associated with cloud at night though (see the clientrawdescription)

[ALITTLEweird1]

I know theres a Cloudy/night icon setting. But what about overcast/nightime?  Thats what Id like to fix if thats even possible. Thanks.

So is getting a Nighttime/overcast icon number possible? So it could get added to the banner script.

I am now having a problem with the night/overcast condition. Clientraw is calling for icon 1 (clear). Other conditions seem to be ok.

[ALITTLEweird1]

Do you have it set to get your night time icon from Metar?

[mrkarron]

Yes, I do.  All other night conditions seem to be reflected correctly by the icon.  I noticed the problem after a recent upgrade, however I am not sure when the problem began.

[ALITTLEweird1]

So the only prob your having is the Night Time Overcast icon isnt working correctly? Its showing Clear when its Overcast on the main WD window?

[mrkarron]

It seems that way.

[ALITTLEweird1]

How far away is your local metar? It could be clear there and overcast at your house. My local Metar is about 25 miles away from me and the night sky conditions are allmost allways different for me.

[mrkarron]

The metar is within 7 miles and was reporting overcast with snow showers.

What do you have setup on this screen? The red outlined area you may want to tick that box if you dont allready. See Pic below

Thats how mine is setup.. I'll look into it further tonight after dusk.
