BOM weather temperature

Hi All, it seems I’m guessing since the BOM website was updated 22/10/25 (shudder), I’m not getting daily min/max for my selected station of Perth anymore.

Also, I just noticed on previous days to that, that it was recording the daily min/max, but not listing the 5-minute intervals? The last time it was doing that for me appears to be 31/5/24.

Hi @yorky. I rely on my own weather station now although there seems to be a problem with Wunderground data dropping out from time-to-time. I have observed that PVO stops retrieving the Temp from Wunderground. If I go into ‘Settings’ on PVO and press ‘Test’ the data are correctly retrieved. If I then hit ‘SAVE’ all of that day’s missing data are populated shortly after the next 5 minute mark.

I did test the URL to BOM for my nearest weather station and it is still returning JSON data. When I first started with PVO I used a script to retrieve and upload the 5 minutely Temperature values to ‘v5’. I assume ( yes that’s dangerous ) that PVO uses the same URLs to obtain data.
