Current Known Hardware Issues


After approximately 15 years of service, our Davis Vantage Pro weather station has failed. I suspect a power system issue. Attempts to repair this locally have met with unreliable results. Due to this fact, I are now temporarily using a WeatherFlow Smart Weather station for website data until I can secure a Davis Vantage Pro 2, hopefully in the near future.

Updated June 30, 2019

In reference to the above post, I am happy to announce I have finally purchased a replacment Davis weather station. WeatherTrek now has a Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus with UV and Solar Senors! The station is currently setup in a temporary configuration. Unfortunatley, this temporary location is not optimal for accurate wind readings. The good news is everything else should be fairly accurate. I hope to have a more permanent installation figured out sometime third quarter 2020. As time permits I will be working this station into the website in the form of a new page.

Current Known Weather Data Issues


From late January until early March, I had a web hosting issue. The website was fully visible, but I was unable to upload any weather data. This was resolved on March 5, 2020. I are now in the process of repairing and updating the website. While most of the current weatherdata is available, there are several holes in previous data that will require some attention. At this point, I are unsure if the data can or will be repaired. However, I are making every effort to ensure the primary weather data going forward will be available and up-to-date.

Current Known Networking Issues


For approximately 6 days (starting June 13) I was experiencing issues connecting to the website both to view and also when attempting to upload weather data. It turns out that the issue was only with my internet provider. For reasons unknown, Spectrum blacklisted the website IP address. I am sure they had their reasons, and being that WeatherTrek is on a shared IP address, it could have been one of the other sites. Anyway, I filed a complaint and a couple of days later the restrictions seem to have been lifted. I am happy we are back in service, and I am taking steps to hopefully reduce the chances of this ocurring in the future. We will just have to wait and see.

Current Known Software Issues


Approximately a month ago, for reasons unknown, the included FTP client in Weather Display started crashing after three days of operation (give or take a couple of hours.) I had two registered instances of Weather Display running on the same computer (which was supposed to work fine, and did for a while), but it was became unstable resulting in the included FTP client crashing itself or the primary software. After several attempts to resolve, I have finally given up, and placed the second instance of Weather Display onto a second computer. As I had plans to evenually migrate the website to a different host, I have taken this opportunity do begin that process as well. Hopefully these two actions will result in a much more stable enviroment.
