Sharper Image Weather Station EC-WS115 not updating ***Again*** 10/19/22

It looks like the WAMPSERVER fix is throwing PHP errors on line 99, 120 and 55 for the getweather.php file. I am thinking this might be due to a change in the data string from Weatherbit ???

Below is an updated version of getweather.php. It works around weatherbit.io changing their free forecasts from 16 days to 7 days.

  1. Download file
  2. Update your weatherbit.io key in the file.
  3. Copy to c:/wamp/www/ folder to replace existing getweather.php

Post here if you have issues.

    Katherine and John or anyone,

    I will spend sometime on this today, but what are your thoughts on how to approach this.

    1. Repeat the 7th day forecast over days 8 to 10.
    2. Zero out days 8 to 10, so you know it's not good data.
    3. Something else?

    Hi Brian,

    Thank you so much for updating the code. I was trying to figure out a way to contact Casper as he guided so many people with his direction with the tutorial he created to get the EC-WS115 working again a few years ago. The prior MS Community thread was locked so I had to get creative to find a way to reach Casper and found the discussion (I also have a DropBox account). I was thrilled to see the resolution. John updated the code first and I had some hiccups but got it working again.

    Quite a number of people were on the thread from a few years ago and successfully applied Casper's fix. Some I expect will find this new thread to fix the EC-WS115 yet again :-)

    Be Well

    Hi John,

    I removed the screen shot with my API code I posted yesterday. Can you edit your comment to remove the link you posted with my API while troubleshooting the errors. Thanks.
