    • RE: Wind direction interval

      @lightmastertech plus one for using the average, a single instantaneous reading every five minutes minutes is a bit meaningless.

    • RE: Report your Weather Station Data to Windy

      I am sending my data via Cumulus MX, it seems to be working apart from the pressure which I am sending in hPa.

      I send .

      ...&pressure=1017.75&...
      

      and it appears on windy.com as Pressure = 10hPa ?

      My station ID is f06ebac8

      Any ideas?

    • RE: Report your Weather Station Data to Windy

      @gearoid Cumulus MX takes the station index too. The first you define is zero, the second 1 etc. I agree though that this information is not presented on your stations page, but they do seem to be listed in station ID order.

    • RE: Report your Weather Station Data to Windy

      I have a test version of Cumulus MX available that uploads to Windy natively - no need for a custom URL, and it converts units as required.

      Details here... https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=17381

    • RE: How to Access the Windy Stations Data

      @chezburke I think the APIs use Kelvin for temperatures.

      @chezburke You're welcome, and despite the upload API using Pascals as the default unit, the download API uses hectoPascals ;)

    • RE: PWS API v2 - Pressure Question

      @Suty Sorry, that is still not clear to me. I think you mean station pressure, but there are three commonly used pressure values in meteorology...

      Station Pressure (sometimes called Absolute Pressure) - the raw pressure value read by the sensor with no reduction applied.
      or
      Sea Level Pressure (QNH) - Station pressure reduced to sea level using temperature and humidity.
      or
      Altimeter - Station pressure reduced to sea level using a temperature profile of the "standard" atmosphere.

    • PWS API v2 - Pressure Question

      I'm assuming you want Sea Level Pressure sent via the API and not Station Pressure or something else. Can someone confirm?

    • RE: Air quality station

      @korina Thread resurrection! Are there any plans to add AQ values to the PWS upload API?

    • RE: Report your Weather Station Data to Windy

      @Swigman Hmm does look like a problem with the API key generation, pretty sure mine doesn't change every time. We need someone from Windy to chip in. One thought (may not be relevant) are you running an ad-block or denying cookies on the page?

    • RE: Report your Weather Station Data to Windy

      @Swigman A mistake I have twice before is people trying to use a Windy download API. You need a station upload API as per the first message in this post. Make sure you are using the correct one. The station API keys are veeerrry long.

    • Windy web map not updating station indicators

      Using Windows 10, latest Chrome Version 74.0.3729.108 (Official Build) (64-bit).

      On opening the map, or rescaling it, the hover data and map indicators match.

      If you leave the map open, the data refreshes every so often.

      • The current selected station at the bottom of the screen updates OK.
      • The data when you hover over stations has updated.
      • However the speeds and indicators on the map itself do not update.

      Two examples below...
      Annotation 2019-04-27 121712.png
      Map still shows 14 mph, hover data now shows 15 mph

      Annotation 2019-04-27 121906.png
      Map still shows 11 mph, hover data now shows 13 mph

      Edit: I think I have misunderstood how it is intended to work. It does not appear the map makes any attempt to update the indicators. I thought it would auto-update like the Wunderground maps. Ah well, maybe a feature request is needed ;)

      @abbas72 Cumulus 1 does not support this feature. Cumulus MX does.
