New Weather Station in the area!

Aw shucks!

I'd like to take the credit for all of it, but really it's just good software handling the stuff. Maybe once I get time to start up blogging again I'll write a blog on how to do it. It would be great if people in small towns all over did this, since there's a lack of good data!

Anyway, on my site, the only thing I really provide is the current weather data. The forecasts and radar data is all provided by the National Weather Service. The software I run magically creates the web page every five minutes with the new information. I plan to do a little nicer layout once I'm convinced everything is running well.

The cost to get it up and running is a bit steep, since you need the weather instruments, a server, web hosting, and the software to aggregate the data, but as you can imagine I already had a lot of the stuff in place already.

It's good to be a Geek! :)

Chris - Tami here. I like all of the stats on it by the hour. It's also kind of neat to see what the weather is going to be like just for our area! Thanks for taking the time to do it. And yes, I'm sure that you already had a lot of the equipment in place. Nice to have a guru in the area!
Have a great week!

Yeah, that's my favorite too. It really is fascinating to see all the raw data from the weather station, it reminds you that the weather can be much different here than in Waukesha or Milwaukee. That is unique info that you won't get from the weather service! :)

Hey Weather guy, could you change the forecast for Wednesday, I've got outdoor activities planned.
Thanks. :)

I'm going to be doing a technical presentation in Elkhart Lake on Wednesday, so I used my weather abilities to take care of the weather there. I can only do one place at a time...Sorry! :D
