I don't have any idea why it wouldn't work before but it's working fine now.

I am stumped but as long as it's working I'll take it.

Thanks

I thought I would revive this old thread, rather than start a new one, as this
is a decent radio. Amazon now has it for $36.06.

Hi everyone,

I'm seeing a Pressure issue with someone trying to send data to us using WUHU.
He's using a Lacrosse Station. Can you guys assist? I've attached the
conversation below.

Thanks!

Hi,

Newbie here.

Poked around with the WUHU uploader.  I didn't see any discrepancy between the
Lacrosse weather station Heavy Weather SW, the WUHU uploaders and the LCD on the
wall WRT to pressure. Nor any setting to adjust altitude that might come in to
play if it matters that we are ~4600 ft in elevation.

Summary:  Feels to me that this side is sending (says it sending) 25.47 for
pressure but Weather bug is echoing/reporting back  a different value of
Er::25.5270588235294

Does weatherbug have other PWS (lacrosse) working with WUHU uploaders?

    I have a LaCrosse WS 2308 and use WUHU to upload.  I have not had the problem with different pressure values.  The same pressure displays on all the sites.

Considering the lowest ever record pressure was 25.69" I would suggest that unless you are in the middle of a record breaking hurricane it's quite unlikely.

Nathan and Robert,

 

I’m running a cheapie LaCrosse WS-2813U-IT and it works very well. I didn't recall any setting for altitude on my system, but in looking through the docs, I realized that they had me use a local calibrated barometer to set the relative pressure. Enter that in the base unit and it should convert future absolute readings to relative.

 

Happy New Year,

Don,

I'm not on WeatherBug. Just a personal preference. As a computer tech, for years
I was taking that off people's PCs. I had heard  (rightly or wrongly at the
time) that it was low-level spyware. At the very least, on corporate networks,
it was utilizing bandwidth which, back in those days, was a precious commodity.
So I've never been a fan.

In this instance, he was reporting to WeatherBug what he station was recording,
so it seemed like an recording error rather than a reporting one. I hope my
suggestion helps.

P.S. Since you asked, I'll start a new thread on the topic of weather services.
I've stuck with WU alone since I installed my station.

	 Hi,

	 Newbie here.

	 Poked around with the WUHU uploader. I didn't see any discrepancy between the
Lacrosse weather station Heavy Weather SW, the WUHU uploaders and the LCD on the
wall WRT to pressure. Nor any setting to adjust altitude that might come in to
play if it matters that we are ~4600 ft in elevation.

	 Summary: Feels to me that this side is sending (says it sending) 25.47 for
pressure but Weather bug is echoing/reporting back a different value of
Er::25.5270588235294

	 Does weatherbug have other PWS (lacrosse) working with WUHU uploaders?

Don,

I'm not on WeatherBug. Just a personal preference. As a computer tech, for years I was taking that off people's PCs. I had heard (rightly or wrongly at the time) that it was low-level spyware. At the very least, on corporate networks, it was utilizing bandwidth which, back in those days, was a precious commodity. So I've never been a fan.

In this instance, he was reporting to WeatherBug what he station was recording, so it seemed like an recording error rather than a reporting one. I hope my suggestion helps.

Nathan and Robert,



I'm running a cheapie LaCrosse WS-2813U-IT and it works very well. I didn't recall any setting for altitude on my system, but in looking through the docs, I realized that they had me use a local calibrated barometer to set the relative pressure. Enter that in the base unit and it should convert future absolute readings to relative.

Having finally posted to the group after having my Lacrosse WS-2813U-IT for a year, I was wondering what you meteorologists think of the various WUHU weather services. I signed on with Weather Underground and have been pretty happy with them both on my PC (despite the new screen layout) and Android (which doesn’t seem to update automatically). Is there a reason to sign up with WeatherBug, PWSWeather, AWEKAS and CWOP?

 

I was a weather geek in junior high and remember a lot of what I read, forgot a lot, too, but still consider myself fairly weather-technical if that makes a difference.

    I have had my LaCrosse 2308 for about 8 years and posting to the web via WUHU for about 7 years. 

    I have the data posted to all the sites available through WUHU.  I figure that the more sites it is posted to the more people might use it.  That could be someone coming to visit a friend or relative in town or someone who might be moving to town.  Or maybe it might be the NWS to modify their forecasts and models or a university doing research.  One of the local real estate offices has a link to WU for local weather.

Mark, it is really just a matter of preference. I do WU, CWOP & AWEKAS. The CWOP
is good if you are interested in comparing your site to others in your area if
you sign up for the Quality Checks. If you do, do not try to chase the results,
watch it over time and see if there are good comparisons for you as micro
climates have a big influence. Is good though to watch for trends in your data.

Hi

I've been running a LC 2308AL since early 01/2008 and joined WUHU on 01/16/2008
and I've learned a great deal by lurking and reading so thank you all. 


As with any other piece of equipment the time may have come for an up-grade: the
wind speed detection has become very flaky; the rain gauge is suspect at best;
about 3 years ago the batteries leaked in the main station but after a thorough
cleaning I got it back online.  I use a ten year old E-Machine laptop, behind a
physical router, running fully patched Win-XP as a dedicated server to
WeatherUnderground and CWOP,  I started searching for a replacement wind
speed/direction unit and a new rain gauge but finding them from a reliable
source seems to be a bit problematic.

I trust the groups input so any suggestions of either a source for replacement
parts or a new station would be welcome.  My station budget is in the $150.00 to
$300.00 (US) range.

Thanks again for 5 years of knowledge.

Can anyone tell me how to generate an action at or near midnight to execute a
script file in WUHU.

Here is what I am currently doing:

I execute a script file to capture memory variables (extreme daily temp, wind
chill, highs, lows and rainfall, wind gust,etc for that day) but I am using the
weather update action in WUHU, so I write this data on every update and then use
sendmail to delivery the data as an email message at or @ 11:59 PM. The problem
is that this is very write intensive, so if I could, within WUHU, generate an
interupt (or action) just before midnight, I can greatly reduce the CPU/program
overhead and save my usb stick some wear and tear.

Maybe there is a better way to scrounge this data, but I am not aware of it.

I am new to the Yahoo group so if someone has already been here and done this, I
would appreciate the help.

For the heck of it, you might try contacting La Crosse directly.

http://www.lacrossetechnologyoutlet.com/parts

The parts list does not seem to show much. Not sure what is going on there. I
would fire off an email to them.

It might be worth saving the station if all you need is a new anemometer and a
rain bucket.

I see they sell reconditioned stations as well.

is that this is very write intensive, so if I could, within WUHU, generate an
interupt (or action) just before midnight, I can greatly reduce the CPU/program
overhead and save my usb stick some wear and tear.

I have had my 2308 running since 2006.  I have replaced the wind sensor once
(with one with cups instead of the fan style, and replace the rain sensor twice.
The site I bought them from (lacrossetechnologyoutlet) does not list them as
available now.  You might try to Google the actual part number on the sensor.  I
think that is how I replace the first sensor.

I have about the same budget for a replacement station (next time this one goes
down) and I have settled on the Davis Vantage Vue. Ambient has them now for
about 280 plus 110 for the data logger.  About 100 more than what I want to
spend but.....

I used to have a 2310 that I kept going for a while before I bought a Davis WS.  The cheapest way I kept mine working was to go to the Great Big Outlet (it’s now http://www.lacrossetechnologyoutlet.com/) and buy a second WS to use for parts.  You might try that – unless you do what I did, buy a Davis.  I have not had to replace a part in 6 years.  Smile

Here is the deal.  Using internal memory variables and action/batch files,
I have successfully sent myself an email every night for the last two months
with an attachment that contains the following information (example):


Time Hack: Wed Jan 02 23:54:23 2013

Daily extremes low outdoor temperature= 38.9
Daily extremes low outdoor temperature time 10:34:22 PM

Daily extremes high outdoor temperature= 44.2
Daily extremes high outdoor temperature time 12:14:57 AM

Daily extreme low outdoor Wind Chill= 34.0
Daily extreme low outdoor Wind Chill time 03:27:57 AM

Max Wind Gust= 25.9  MPH
Daily Max Win Direction was from the N at  01:26:57

Daily extreme Rain Fall= 0.00 Inches at 23:54:22
Hourly Rain Fall= 0.00 inch(s)

Daily RainFall=  0.00
24 hr outdoor rain fall = 0.00 inch(s)

Total Rain Fall = 13.97 inches since 08-10-2012

(End of file)


The method that I use to obtain this data is to write the necessary memory
variables each time that there is an update and that means writing all that
data over and over and then using the Windows scheduler to execute a
sendmail batch file and attach this data to the email just before midnight
each day.  The daily extremes start over at midnight for the next day and
"adjust" all day till midnight.   Basically what I am doing is a very sloppy
way to do business...I thought maybe a time mask or batch file, perhaps
there is a time interrupt scheme or some other ingenious method within WUHU
would allow me to only write the memory variables one time very near
midnight and allow me to capture all of the "extremes" of the day.

I guess I just like to have a bunch of "useless data", but I find this data
interesting.

73,
Bob

There is a way to process a script using something called time limiters. It is
too early in the morning for to recall the details on the syntax so have a look
at the online manual. If you have any questions let us know. I believe that is
all that you would need with your existing setup.

I would create a separate action file that is used with the time limiter since
you are probably doing more than just processing a single template at the
desired time.

The only caveat with time limiters is that they work best with station types
that are sure to receive a complete update each minute.

John:

Thanks!  I think this is what I am looking for...now I just need to try it
out!  I may move the email out of the windows scheduler, but this solution
will probably solve my problem.
Maybe something like:  time(23:53,23:59,@1 ):daily_extreme_to_file.bat
should reduce my write on update down to a few minutes instead of the 24/7
that I am currently doing.

I will let you know how it works after the implementation and testing.

Bob
