<p dir="auto">Last night (19th August 2019) I started uploading to <a href="http://Windy.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Windy.com</a> from my weather station in the West End of Dundee (<a href="http://www.dundeeweather.org.uk" rel="nofollow ugc">www.dundeeweather.org.uk</a>).  Windy is showing my data but while last night my station showed up as one of the nearest in Dundee it now does not and there is a message saying it is a duplicate station.</p>
<p dir="auto">We are close to EGPN but at higher altitude and have quite different local conditions since we are away from the very exposed river location that EGPN is in.</p>
<p dir="auto">It would be nice if my station data could appear as an option to anyone looking at Dundee and also that it showed up in Searches for "Dundee West End".</p>
<p dir="auto">Can anyone advise?</p>
<p dir="auto">Many thanks,</p>
<p dir="auto">Geoff.</p>

It is nice to be able to see my data with your interface and there is a consistent way to get there.</p>
<p dir="auto">One other thing though if I zoom in to the station (street map), the text that identifies it is nearly invisible (this is using Firefox web browser).   If I click on the station identifier, the view then zooms out to give a broad view of Scotland.</p>
<p dir="auto">Is this expected behaviour or just something particular to PWSs?</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks again for your help and for the superb <a href="http://Windy.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Windy.com</a> service with its fabulous graphics.</p>

Therefore two stations close to each other are considered duplicate.</p>
<p dir="auto">As long as you are able to click on your station a see your detail I think this is just cosmetic issue</p>

<p dir="auto">I also get this a lot when clicking on local stations... endless loading sighn..  Maybe having two stations close has broken something?   The Airport and mine both reported fine last night when I first set up my pws to upload but it stopped overnight.</p>

<p dir="auto">Interestingly, when you click on EGPN you get my station data not EGPN.  Maybe they should shift ;-)</p>
<p dir="auto">Seriously though, is there a minimum distance in lat/long/altitude between two stations on <a href="http://windy.com" rel="nofollow ugc">windy.com</a>?  I'm reluctant to fiddle with the reported lat/long for mine.  I often compare to EGPN as the differences between the airport on the river (EGPN) and my station which is up the hill and in town are often interesting.</p>

I suggest adjusting the location of your station and shifted a bit from the EGPN station.</p>
