"Days Until Christmas" Script for geektool

THEN=`date -v11y -v25d -v12m +%s`
SECS=$(($THEN-$(date +%s)))
echo "Days: "$(($SECS/3600/24))

 

I've got the script "working" put all it outputs is "-2179". Any ideas?

 

Replace this:

Code:

THEN=`date -v11y -v25d -v12m +%s`

with this:

Code:

THEN=`date -v25d -v12m +%s`

Thanks! I figured it out. Problem was the year code was set to 2011. I changed it to '17 and now it's working just fine.

75 days until the Trucks leave from Fenway to the Spring Training facility in Ft. Myers

Now if I could just get a humidity only script

 

Changing it to 17 works for this year. Then you have to change it to 18 in 2018. And so on.

The change I gave uses the current year, whatever it is, so no change needed in 2018, etc.

 

Ah! Thanks for the clue!
Any idea how to extract just the humidity level from accuweather.com?
