Currently this weather station is using my main home computer as the server and the medium to upload all information to the web site. Every minute for some files are uploaded and between every 5 minutes to 24 hours for others. You may notice spikes in the data and history, this is due to several sensor failures. Please ignore any "off the wall" readings as in 32 degrees in the middle of August.The Temperature/Humidity sensor is back on-line 10/18/03
The Rain Gauge is back on-line 11/3/03
The sensor was attacked by ants which made a nest in the housing. Repairs were futile and I am attempting to order a new unit. Radio Shack replaced the sensor but after an enitre month of waiting at the service center in Jacksonville. Word of caution...if you are going to buy a WX station do yourself a favor and pass up the $399 deal from Radio Shack and go right to Davis Instruments, it may be expensive but it is reliable and a bit more accurate out of the box. Radio Shack is slow to do repairs and Oregon Scientific the maker of the station will hang up on you if you tell them it is a model with the RS name on it. Everyone knows that the WMR-698 and the RS unit are identical but they refuse to support it.
Fire Index not valid while outside temperature sensor is out of service.
