Pollen risk index

The German Weather Service DWD prepares daily forecasts of the pollen risk index. The pollen species are predicted: hazel, alder, ash, birch, grass, rye, mugwort and ambrosia for today and tomorrow, on Friday also for the day after tomorrow (Sunday). Updated daily in the morning. Information on the pollen counties can be found at: https://www.dwd.de/pollenflug Copyright of used pollen data: © Deutscher Wetterdienst (Quelle: Deutscher Wetterdienst)

Install & Configuration

Select the county in the ioBroker adapter configuration. You will get the pollen risk index for this county. The index will be updated once the day, around 11 o'clock. In the objects info.today, info.tomorrow and info.dayaftertomorrow the validity period will be shown. It can possible that for example today is friday but in the object info.today the day ist thursday. That is correct, because the DWD data are still from thursday and not updated till now. The update will be at 11 o'clock normaly.

Example

If new data from DWD arrived (the today date will change), the script will show the pollen risk index for Hasel and Erle.

on({id: "pollenflug.0.info.today"/*Today*/, change: "ne"}, (obj) => {
    let hasel = getState("pollenflug.0.region#12.Hasel.text_today"/*today*/).val;
    let erle  = getState("pollenflug.0.region#12.Erle.text_today"/*today*/).val;
    console.log("Haselnuss Belastung " + hasel);
    console.log("Erle Belastung " + erle);
