Has anyone actually seen a definition about exactly how weather forecasting and rain delays work?
I know from the calendar in the app that the forecast is for two weeks in advance. Based on the calculated moisture levels as of the current day and the forecast for the next two weeks, smart watering can be calculated for that period. From examination of the weather information day by day, I can tell that the forecast values change at least every day.
You would think that a rain delay based on a forecast would be re-evaluated based on the actual weather date on the day. The same would apply to a wind delay. If the factor instituting the delay changes, especially during the scheduled irrigation time, it would be nice if the delay could be cancelled dynamically.
I think I need to better understand the relationship between the app, the cloud and the controller. I haven’t seen much information on this.
