SteveSBE Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Are backyard weather stations available via WeatherBug?
wrj0 Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 SteveSBE, Yes. And it works like a champ. Just enter the p number of the desired WB Backyard Station into the LocationID field of the ISY Weatherbug Settings screen. Edit: Note Weatherbug does not (yet) publish light data from a Backyard station.
SteveSBE Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 I can see it at the following link but it does not update in the UD Admin console. http://data.backyard2.weatherbug.com/data/ecv.aspx?ID=p11114 I get this error: Sat 2011/08/20 11:41:16 AM System -140005 CLI-WBug Any reason why? Thanks, STeve
wrj0 Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Looks like there's no current data being published from this Backyard station. Please see the status on the right side of this url: http://data.backyard2.weatherbug.com/da ... ?ID=p11114
SteveSBE Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Never mind...my mistake. I had configured my weather station upload incorrectly. It works now! Steve
wrj0 Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Excellent. Glad you got it working as it's great to have (very!) local weather data.
Hurting2Ride Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Hi Steve, If you don't mind me asking, what weatherstation hardware and software are you using? And how do you like it? The closest WB weatherstation to me is far enough away that the readings are a couple of degrees off from my home. Since I just installed a couple of whole-house fans I want to automate them to turn on when there's enough temp difference between the inside of the house, the attic and the outside so I'm in the process of deciding weather (haha, get it...) to just buy some temp sensors or to go all the way and buy a weatherstation. Thanks!
SteveSBE Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 I use Davis Weatherstaion II (older model) and Virtual Weather Station.
