{{:current_weather.png?300 |{{current_weather.png?300|}}

The current weather conditions section of this page shows the latest available weather conditions from the weather station. As well as current conditions, most parameters will also show daily highs, lows or totals.
The time of the last recorded weather observation is shown on the right hand side of the menu bar.  

Weather parameters are dynamically generated. This means that the items displayed match the sensors installed on the weather station. Please note: It is important that the correct sensors are enabled in the [[settings|settings page]] for them to display. 

The almanac displays the current moon phase, sunrise and sunset times. The weather stations latitude and longitude values must be correct for the almanac to be accurate. You can adjust your location in the [[settings|settings page]] if necessary.
