I have a rachio gen 3 and I also have an ambient weather WS2902 weather station. So far I have been unsuccessful in getting the two paired. The weather station has been setup at Weather Underground for a handful of days now and is accessible on WU. When I first setup the weather station I was able to select PWS’s located around the area, however now when I try I am only able to select official stations like the local airport. After reading the documents it looks like the gen 1 and 2 have an option to toggle PWS usage, but the gen 3 does not. It seems like I need to enable that feature but do not have the ability to do so.
See the attached screenshot, earlier there were about 6-7 PWS around my rachio icon.
It can take about a week for your station to start showing up in our weather feed. If it doesn’t show up after that let us know and we can reach out to WeatherUndergound.
It seems the no weather underground stations are working. I used to have a station 2 miles from my home. Know they are not listed anymore. All weather underground stations are off. Any idea what happened?
I just upgraded my gen 1 to a gen 3 last week. My gen 1 shows my PWS, and still does in the offline mode. My gen 3 doesn’t see my station.
1st pic = gen 1 (currently in offline mode)
2nd pic = gen 3 options
IBM Weather Underground is still working to resolve this issue.
Dear TWC API Customer,
Our team continues to actively work on the issue and is currently implementing a fix to resolve the problem. Customers should start seeing data back for active PWS stations after the fix is implemented. Please note that it is possible that some stations may take up to 24hrs to recover as these might be cached. We will continue to monitor the issue and provide a final resolution confirmation as soon as possible.
Hi Franz! Absolutely love my Rachio 3, so I decided to buy a PWS. It has been live and on Wunderground, but not on my Rachio dashboard for me to select. Can you reach out to IBM so it flows thru to Rachio and available as one of the PWS? The link is:
Just following up. Checked my Rachio app this past Tuesday and my weather station appeared, however, Wednesday it was removed from the selections on the app and is still not available.
