Local station with junk data
-
Hi, looking at a local station near me https://www.windy.com/station?gfs,53.620,-10.186,8 Inishbofen it has been giving out junk measurements, its -50˚C colder, 10x the wind speed etc, I don't know if this data is affecting the quality of my local reporting or not, but as I cant see a way to contact the owner I am hoping someone here can advise or get it taken out of the system

This weather station is a personal weather station (pws). Windy has no control over it and only its owner can remove it.Its data has absolutely no effect on the local weather forecast by weather models like those shown in Windy.
For reporting you’d better rely on the WMO weather station at Mace head. Note that other personal weather stations (pws or madis) along the coast rather report temperature in the same way as Mace Head.
