Weather Actions

The Weather Action service provides meteorological information to your scripts and rules.

• getHumidex(double temperature, int hygro): Compute the Humidex index given temperature in Celsius and hygrometry (relative percent). Returns Humidex index value.
• getBeaufortIndex(double speed): Compute the Beaufort scale for a given wind speed in m/s. Returns the Beaufort Index between 0 and 12. transform/beaufort.map:

0=Calm
1=Light air
2=Light breeze
3=Gentle breeze
4=Moderate breeze
5=Fresh breeze
6=Strong breeze
7=High wind
8=Gale
9=Strong/severe gale
10=Storm
11=Violent storm
12=Hurricane force

• getSeaLevelPressure(double pressure, double temp, double altitude): Compute the Sea Level Pressure, given absolute pressure in hPa, temperature in Celsius, and altitude in meters. Returns equivalent sea level pressure.
• getWindDirection(int degree): Transform an orientation angle (in degrees) to its cardinal string equivalent. Returns string representing the direction.
