This is the official Yr Nowcast module for MagicMirror², which displays data from Yr.
Nowcast data is only available for some Norwegian locations covered by the Norwegian weather radars. See Explanation (in Norwegian)!
Sometimes the Nowcast will tell you "no precipitation next 90 minutes", while the weather symbol contains rain or snow. This is expected, since the weather symbol is based on a weather model and Nowcast is based on radar observations.
The temperature value is fetched from the current hour in the weather forecast for your location.
Remote into your Magic Mirror box using a terminal software and go to the modules folder:
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/YR/MMM-YrNow
