      Hi!

      I've set up station f05b2d5f (which is the only one in that account) and I'm feeding it with API calls like

      https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/key_would_be_here?ts=1606812805&pressure=931.93&temp=-1.18&rh=99.75&winddir=267&wind=9.2&gust=9.9
      

      every 5 minutes. Response is always

      SUCCESS (valid measurements count: 6, valid station info count: 0) 
      

      The data I'm sending appears correct in

      https://stations.windy.com/pws/station/key_would_be_here/0
      

      except for the "observation" and "observationUpdated", which are null and a date that doesn't update at all. The timestamps also have 3 trailing zeroes, but I assume that's normal since I'm not sending them that way.

      Yet, https://www.windy.com/station/pws-f05b2d5f?48.764,8.281,8 doesn't load, only shows a loading animation. It also does not show up on the map.

      Is there anything I'm doing wrong?

          Update: I erroneously sent the pressure in hPa instead of Pa. Fixed it now, still not loading, but maybe that's what caused it.

          Is there any way to remove the false data?

                It works now, apparently it just takes around 36 hours for a station to show up, instead of the 30 minutes mentioned in the API documentation.

                  @gsvbaden Happy to hear this, it may take some time till the station is displayed.
