Weather station not entirely healthy

If it's not one thing, it's another.

The weather station is acting up. The current wind reading is accurate, but the wind maximum and temperature readings are broken. I'm working on it with Davis Instruments.

Web wind readings down for a couple of days

Postby Daniel Pifko » Wed Jun 06, 2007 11:09 am

The temperature/humidity sensor on our weather station is hosed and it's confusing the rest of the system. We're getting a new sensor from Davis Instruments (under warranty), which should arrive and be installed in the next few days. In the meanwhile the wind readings on the web are completely offline. The (voice) windtalker is working and not affected by this issue.

Weather Station healthy again

Thanks to a team effort, the wind readings are back online. That being said, it looks like I didn't calibrate the wind direction as well as last time. Add something like 15 degrees to the direction and it'll be more accurate. We'll recalibrate and let you know here when it's right again.
