Home Assistant’s Foreca connection expands its hourly forecast from two days to seven and its daily forecast from ten days to fourteen. Both horizons are included in Foreca’s free plan. Daily forecasts also gain cloud cover and the maximum feels-like temperature.
A separate forecast action returns details such as snowfall, sunshine duration and thunderstorm probability, together with ranges for temperature and precipitation that show forecast uncertainty. It uses data already fetched, so calling the action does not make another request.
Current rain intensity, precipitation probability and thunderstorm probability also become sensors for dashboards and automations. Those readings describe current conditions rather than the longer forecast.
