'Becomes less than'. Does this mean that, at the 'low temp' posted time the temp is below 70º = email sent? 'BECOMES' sounds more like 72>71>70>69 email sent
Correct. "Low Temperature Tonight" is the forecast for the evening. From my observations, it seems that around 6:00 AM is when NOAA sets this value for the first time in any particular day (e.g. early on Monday morning prior to 6:00 AM, the Low Temperature Tonight represents the low for Sunday night, after 6:00 AM, the Low Temperature Tonight represents the low for Monday night). The value can change if NOAA changes their prediction sometime during the day, but for the most part, it's constant for the entire day.
"Becomes Less Than" means that it has to first be greater than or equal to the value you enter. If the Low Temperature Tonight was never at or above the value you entered, that trigger will never fire. If you want Indigo to send you an email each time the low temperature is updated with a value less than 70, set the trigger to "Has Any Change" rather than "Becomes Less Than", then specify a condition in the Conditions tab that requires the "Low Temperature Tonight" value of the device to be less than 70. That way, each time the state is updated with a value less than 70, you'll get an email. NOTE, however, that NOAA Weather Plus, clears and re-updates each of it's states every 15 minutes. This means that you'd be getting an email every 15 minutes with the same information. I don't have an elegant work-around for this at the moment. I'll need to think about a better way to reliably update the device states without having to clear them out first. An update to improve upon this may not be available real soon unless a number of people have a pressing need though.
