[Answered]10 day forecast icons always sunny on control page

It has been a sunny summer so I haven't given a second thought to my 10 day forecast icons always being sunny on my control page. But now there's a 60% chance of rain Tuesday and the icon is still sunny so I think I've done something wrong. Here's my control page with Tuesday's icon selected. Is there something wrong here?

How can I see the values of the plug-in's variables? I tried "Write Weather Data to File" but I get the message "WUnderground Error Unable to write weather data to file at this time." in the log.

I'm pretty sure my Weather Underground account is set up correctly because it shows my requests for forecast10day:

Hey, sorry to hear that you're having trouble. I'm sure that we'll be able to figure it out.

My icons are working:

I feel the need to point out that when you are looking at the images in the Control Page Editor, the icons will always look the same (the image you posted is from the editor.) I assume that they look identical when you're looking at the live page as well.

In order to see the states of the device, look to the pane below the main Indigo Window (you may have to scroll down):

Regarding the ability to write weather data to the file, I'm getting the same error. I'll look into that one. Thanks for reporting it.

But I think that your issue may be what you're linking the images to. You should be keying off of an icon state:

Please let me know how you get on.

I had no idea that info was down there. I thought the bottom of the Device Details box was the bottom of the pane. You have opened my eyes!

That was definitely the problem. I'm not sure why I thought I was supposed to be keying off the conditions state.

Thanks a lot for your help.
