IRM KMI Weather integration for Home Assistant
Home Assistant weather provider using data from Belgian IRM KMI. The data is collected via their non-public mobile application API.
Although the provider is Belgian, the data is available for Belgium 🇧🇪, Luxembourg 🇱🇺, and The Netherlands 🇳🇱
Note: this is still under development, new versions may not be backward compatible.

Limitations
-
The weather provider sometime uses two weather conditions for the same day (see below). When this is the case, only the first weather condition is taken into account in this integration.
-
The trends for 14 days are not shown
-
The warnings shown in the app are not shown by the integration
-
The provider only has data for Belgium, Luxembourg and The Netherlands
Mapping between IRM KMI and Home Assistant weather conditions
Mapping was established based on my own interpretation of the icons and conditions.
