Forecast 'unavailable' when device offline #62

Open wizmo2 opened 1 year ago

wizmo2 commented 1 year ago

If the station is offline, the forecast entities show unavailable. Would it be possible to keep the device and forecast active by using the current_conditions in the forecast data (which remains valid)?

I've have a couple of tempest systems, one in a remote location. I previously used your UDP monitoring (which is excellent) and the "late" darksky forecasts. I've switch to your rest integration to remote monitor both the device and for local forecasts, but now if I loose power or internet at the remote location, I loose the forecast too!

I know this is an old issue, but I will try and look in to seperating the two, so that you can keep the forecast.

Thanks for looking in to it. I did make mods myself, but they were not PR ready.
