not seeing outside temperature and a big thank you! #1

Thanks for keeping this sensor up-to-date!

I noticed on the commit message that there was outside temperature monitoring? I installed the new sensor code and restarted HA. But I do not see the outside temperature in my dashboard. What am I doing wrong?

Outside temperature is not very useful, but it was in the old component so I added it. I guess if you added you location in the app, it will query a weather service (which can be done in homeassistant much better). It's a climate component so it doesn't expose any sensors. The extra information is in the state attributes. I have added some information to the readme how you can configure a template sensor to get that data.
