We recently moved homes.
I have a weather card on the Lovelace UI.
When I first installed Home Assistant, I didn’t configure the UI in YAML. The weather card was created automatically based on input I gave during the initial setup.
About 2 months ago I switched the UI config to YAML. I manually added the weather card and used the existing weather entity (for my home address then). I didn’t set up that entity (thus, it’s not in my
configuration.yaml
).At my new address, I thought that maybe after updating my home location under the
homeassistant:
section and updating my homezone:
that a new weather entity would be created. It could be that the old entity is using the new lat long, but I’m unable to tell the difference, as it’s still the same town.I would love to understand how the defaults were created in the first place and which weather platform it uses.
What would be the correct way for me to set and update my weather card? Do I need to explicitly set up a
weather:
platform? Must i create an entity or is it created when I setup the platform.I can only find some thin and somewhat contradictory info as it seems things have changed a bit over time.
