Tags with UTC date/time not working

[saratogaWX]

Boris,

The docs at http://www.meteobridge.com/wiki/index.php/Templates show

When a capital "U" preceeds a date/time variable name, UTC is used instead of local time ("[Uhh]:[Umm]:[Uss] UTC" is evaluated to a string like "16:03:33 UTC")

and when code like this is used as a template

Code: Select all

date|[YYYY]-[MM]-[DD]|// local date:|:
time|[hh]:[mm]:[ss]|// local time:|:
dateUTC|[UYYYY]-[UMM]-[UDD]|// UTC date:|:
timeUTC|[Uhh]:[Umm]:[Uss]|// UTCtime:|:

the values for time and timeUTC are identical (and are local timezone time). I suspect that the dateUTC would also be the local time's date also.

So, it appear that the 'U' modifier is not being honored in the template processing. I'm running Meteobridge 1.8 (2198) on a TL-MR3020

Best regards,
Ken

You are right, I can confirm the bug. Will be solved this evening.

Display of UTC versus CDT:

I have system set to display CDT but when I click on wunderground map for my station, the daily plot displays UTC.

Meteobridge does always send UTC timestamped data to WU.
When data WU presents to you is not in you local timezone,
then your profile setings in WU is wrong, or WU does have a problem.

I checked meteobridge settings and it is definitely time zone "America Chicago"
Where should I email a screen shot that shows CDT settings but plots as UTC ( five hours later)

It is actually a confirmed issue with WU; they are switching over databases and the Timezone and Station Altitude values are not working at the moment.
