New weather station software up and running

New Personal Weather Station Owner

Posted by: Greenosity, 05:17 PM GMT del 22 Aprile 2010

I recently purchased a Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus with an additional Wireless Temperature Station which I now have uploading to Weather Underground and my personal web site.Being a newbie to personal weather stations and the available software, I've been learning a lot - like the fact that there's no single software package that will do everything I want. Since I have an additional temperature sensor, I want to be able to view not only its current reading, but also the...

On Sunday, October 7 my kids were swimming in our back yard. I can't recall ever swimming outside in October. Where is the cool air already?
