DWD Weather warnings
The dwd_weather_warnings
sensor platform uses the Deutsche Wetter Dienst (DWD) as a source for current and advance warnings.
- A name is optional but if multiple regions are used a name will be required.
- The sensor checks for new data every 15 minutes.
To add the DWD WarnApp sensor to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml
file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: dwd_weather_warnings

- Verify if you find any warning for your region here:

- Warnungen vor extremem Unwetter (Stufe 4)
