This is working perfectly to provide recognized variables that retrieve live data from its weather app. A nice shortcut to creating a speaking Weather Conditions task. Thank you for this app.

How is it that you're still not the first thing that shows up when I type “weather”?

Doesn't work for me. Feb 2017: Still doesn't work for Samsung Note 5.

I'm using this plugin to auto-set my Nest thermostat based on the current weather. I'm very satisfied with its functionality. It never gives me any errors, just accurate weather updates when I ask for them.

Tasker control for the best weather app!

K70%
by K####:

No matter how I configured the plugin, no variables ever set. Followed instructions and no info readable in tasker. Either the plugin is worthless or the documentation is sorely lacking to be able and use it appropriately. Uninstalling...

by K####:

Just want to know how to get the next day's sunrise and forcast. Particularly one would be looking for the next day's sunrise! Also don't get the facility to select the variables in tasker. Could you please provide some documentation for that.

K70%
by K####:

The easiest way to get weather info into Tasker so that you can act on it. I have a Flic button that I press when I am leaving the house to shutdown my PC, turn off my stereo etc, and now it will additionally flash my lights blue if rain is rpedicted for the day. Neat! I docked one star because of the lack of documentation - I'd love to know all the possible values for the different variables, so that I could plan the reactions better (in particular %weatherace_weather_desc).

V70%
by V####:

This is one outstanding app. The available customization and source selection is fantastic. It does everything a weather app should do. Adding the Tasker plug-in is icing on the cake.
