Retrieve recent radar data

[niclashoyer]

I'm currently trying to get recent radar data from DWD RADOLAN. The adjust_datetimes method of the api cuts any date back to XX:50, but e.g. the RY and RW products are available in 5 and 10 minute intervals (see RY, RW).

Is this intentional, or does adjust_datetimes need an update?

Dear @niclashoyer ,

I assume adjust_datetimes needs an update! As it seems RY (5min) and RW (10min) already have a different release schedule. Do you know by chance the different release schedules of all radar products?

[niclashoyer]

There is an overview here. As far as I can see for the free products:

Product	Schedule
RX	5 min
WX	5 min
RY	5 min
YW	5 min
RW	10 min
SF	60 min (at XX:50)

RX and WX seem to be deprecated/gone and replaced by WN, which also has a schedule of 5 minutes.

Dear @niclashoyer ,

I will try to look into this later/the next days! Already getting a headache seeing all the different configurations 😵‍💫

[niclashoyer]

Yes, no hurry. I just commented it out for the moment and use the 5 min default. From what I see, just RW needs to be added, and everything else can fall back to 5 min. But I may be wrong. Maybe I can provide a PR in the next days, depends on weather and family 😄

I made a PR, but as of now this is fully untested: #1152
