Issue
The buienradar app in 2.07b only updates once an hour, which used to be every 10 minuten in 2.05 and earlier.

Just configure the buienradar app on a tag

Expected behavior
Every 10 minutes the buienradar data is updated on the tag. (or make it configurable?)

The update frequency depends on the actual rain predictions on the screen:
If there is no predicted rain for the entire next 2 hours, it updates once an hour.
If there is some predicted rain in the next 2 hours, it updates every 15 minutes
If there is rain predicted within one hour, it updates every 5 minutes.

This has always been the case, and is as designed. That way, it saves maximum on battery usage, while you still get enough info for the predictions.

Really smart! Probably I missed this feature because of the endless rain last period. Fortunately it does not rain now ;-) Thnx!
