Downloads images from the NOAA NHC website.

Project description

NHC Image Retrieval

This is a simple tool to download images from the NOAA NHC website. Today, it retrieves the latest available "uncertainty track" for an active storm in the Atlantic hurricane basin.

Installation

This library can be installed via pip:

pip install nhc-image-retrieval

Usage

Home Assistant

I initially wrote this library for Home Assistant. I have an automation setup to read from the NHC RSS feeds already - now, when those are read from, my Home Assistant instance also downloads the latest "Uncertainty Track" from the NHC.

alt text

This is possible using AppDaemon, which can be downloaded as a Home Assistant Add-On.

The example in examples/home_assistant_appdaemon.py shows the script I use in my Home Assistant instance.

General

For any generic application, I've also included an examples/main.py that shows basic usage & the downloading of the Uncertainty Track image.
