Apple Weather kit Time Date

Post by fali2679 »

While downloading the weather data, the time stamp for 'sunrisse' , 'sunset' etc is all in GMT. I don't find any place to enter a time zone. On the Adafruit io page it gives the correct local time, and the lat, lon coordinates are correct.
Secrets file has the correct time zone

Data available in forecast_days_1 forecast

The time zone calculation is also messing up the sunrise, sunset and other times also.
sunrise is on the 27th and sunset is on the 28th, this is because of the +8 hour time difference.

You could try setting your time zone (if you haven't):
https://accounts.adafruit.com/settings/profile

I don't think we modify the data coming back from apple though. I'll file an issue internally and take a look at it. It would be nice if any dates we get returned are re-set to the time zone set in your profile.
