This trigger will fire based on the current weather conditions and requires a network connection to obtain periodic weather updates. Weather information is obtained from OpenWeatherMap (http://openweathermap.org).
Options
Trigger Type
- Temperature: Trigger when temperature goes above or below a specified value
- Wind Direction: Trigger when wind direction changes
- Wind Speed: Trigger when wind speed goes above or below a specified value (in mph)
- Humidity: Trigger when humidity goes above or below a specified percentage
- Weather Conditions: Trigger when specific weather conditions occur
- Any Weather Update: Trigger on every weather update
Temperature Options
- Above/Below: Choose whether to trigger when temperature exceeds or drops below the threshold
- Temperature Value: Set the temperature threshold
- Unit: Choose between Celsius and Fahrenheit
Wind Speed Options
- Above/Below: Choose whether to trigger when wind speed exceeds or drops below the threshold
- Speed Value: Set the wind speed threshold in miles per hour (mph)
Humidity Options
- Above/Below: Choose whether to trigger when humidity exceeds or drops below the threshold
- Percentage: Set the humidity threshold (0-100%)
Weather Conditions
- Clear: Trigger on clear/sunny weather
- Cloudy: Trigger on cloudy conditions
- Rain: Trigger on rain or drizzle
- Thunder: Trigger on thunderstorms
- Snow: Trigger on snow
Location Mode
- Use Fixed Location: Set a specific location for weather updates
- Use Last Known Location: Use the device's current location (requires location permission)
Local Variables
Magic text variables are available for weather data including temperature, wind speed, humidity, and conditions.
Examples
Triggers Weather (Temperature < 0C)
Actions
Notification: Freezing Temperature Alert!
Current temperature is below freezing
Speak Text: Warning, temperature is below zero
Alert when temperature drops below freezing.
Triggers Weather (Conditions: Rain)
Actions
Notification: Rain Detected
Remember to bring an umbrella!
Set Variable: [weather_condition] = Rain
Constraints Time of Day: 06:00 - 09:00
Morning rain notification to remind about umbrella.
Notes
- Requires network connection to fetch weather updates from OpenWeatherMap.
- Weather update frequency can be configured in MacroDroid settings.
- The trigger only fires when the condition threshold is crossed (e.g., temperature drops below the threshold), not continuously while the condition is met.
- When using "Use Last Known Location", the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission is required.
- Weather data accuracy depends on OpenWeatherMap coverage for your location.
- The "Any Weather Update" option triggers on every periodic update, useful for logging or updating variables.
- Wind direction trigger fires whenever the wind direction changes.
