Signal K Plugin for Windy

In some ways, all boats are weather stations. This plugin gathers environment data from boat instruments and sends information to Windy as a Personal Weather Station (PWS). It supports wind speed, gusts, wind direction, temperature, pressure and humidity.

See a sample station here.

Important Notes:

• Requires navigation.position, environment.wind.directionGround, environment.wind.speedOverGround and environment.outside.temperature
• You will likely need signalk-derived-data plugin for environment.wind.directionGround and environment.wind.speedOverGround.
• environment.outside.pressure and environment.outside.humidity are optional
• You need an API key that you can obtain from Windy
• You first need to create a station on Windy, enter the corresponding ID to plugin configuration
