Duplicate lines in the forecast

[IATkachenko]

@m-larin, hello.

It is not duplicate.
Yandex is providing forecast data for next two times of day: if you check weather in the morning it will be "day" and "evening".
and the integration translates it to timestamps (with datetime), but UI card is not show full datetime.

So, on the screenshot you may see forecasts for today "day" and "evening" and the integration can not affect to a way that UI show data.

In states (developer tools of Home Assistant) it looks like:

forecast: 
- datetime: '2022-12-14T14:56:27.543932'
  wind_bearing: 270
  condition: snowy
  precipitation_probability: 90
  temperature: -4
  templow: -4
  pressure: 739.56
  wind_speed: 5.7
  precipitation: 0.8
- datetime: '2022-12-14T20:56:27.543932'
  wind_bearing: 270
  condition: snowy
  precipitation_probability: 40
  temperature: -4
  templow: -5
  pressure: 744.81
  wind_speed: 4.8
  precipitation: 0.4

The only way to have timestamps -- show more forecast data, but Yandex provides just two intervals.

Then, as a suggestion, it can output time from forecast data, with the possibility of disabling the output of this information through settings.

The integration could not affect to UI.
We have full forecast timestamp in forecast data (datetime field, see above / dev tools), but UI show only a date.

I may add any field to attributes, but could not affect to data representation.

If you need "disable forecast" option in the integration settings -- I may add it, but I don't think that it will be useful.

I see, thank you.

I have an idea how to get around this. Replace the date output with text. The text should be as follows: if it is morning, then the nearest forecast is displayed with the inscription "Day", the next one is "Evening". If it's day, then the forecast is "Evening" and "Night". If it's evening, then the forecast is "Night" and "Tomorrow morning". If it's night, then in the forecast "Tomorrow morning" and "Tomorrow afternoon". Take the night period from 0 to 6 hours, morning from 6 to 12, etc.

According to the documentation it should be "UTC Date time in RFC 3339 format.", not just string.
Just because UI will parse it.
