WeatherCat Feature Requests / Re: SFTP and/or PHP Uploads
« Last post by grcg on January 21, 2024, 04:43:01 AM »
I would also like SFTP to be added.  I have been waiting to get my wx station back up and running and would really like to use wxcat.  But without SFTP I probably ought to look at something else. :(

Dear WeatherCat observers of the skies many moods,

The weather is turning more stormy here in Northern California and yesterday's sunrise was an indicator of this:



If the forecast holds up we should end up with above normal rainfall for January after all.

WeatherCat General Discussion / Re: WeatherCAT Crashing several times an hour

Thanks Edouard,
I will obtain/submit said reports and submit.  Would certainly like to have WLL stability.  WLIP + WeatherCat has been rock solid for me for years.  I know WLL will get there as well.

Dear Gman19 and WeatherCat troubleshooters,

I changed my comms the other day to use Weatherlink Live....constant crashes.  I changed back to WeatherLinkIP....smooth sailing.

Unfortunately, the WeatherLink Live code is relatively new while the WeatherLinkIP code is well proven.  If you want to play it safe, you will be better off to stick to the older hardware.  If you want to help the development process for the WeatherLink Live code, it would help if you could obtain a crash report.  The instructions to do this are on this thread:

https://athena.trixology.com/index.php?topic=1785.0

You can then attach the report to a thread or send them directly to WeatherCat technical support:

I hope that is of some help.

My Mac info is attached.  Any thoughts or input much appreciated!

Dear Blick and WeatherCat commentators on weather forecasting technology,

It's clear to me. They are saying the weather will either be warmer and drier, colder and wetter, or about the same as normal. Unless it isn't.  :)

In other words . . . . It is as clear as MUD!

Oh well, . . . . Edouard

It isn't that these forecasts are particularly clear at best, but this forecast definitely left me rather uncertain as to what they are expecting.

Dear staze and WeatherCat tinkerers,

I'm wanting to fire Weathercat back up, and feed it from my Meteobridge, which already is feeding loop data elsewhere... so was hoping to try to use the XML driver, but there's not much for documentation that I can see (all I see is the stuff on page 241 of the manual). Meteobridge's native XML is not formatted properly

Another WeatherCat user managed to get this to work properly if I remember correctly.  Is this thread the sort of information you are looking for?

WeatherCat Integration / Anyone using the XML driver?

Hi All,

I'm wanting to fire Weathercat back up, and feed it from my Meteobridge, which already is feeding loop data elsewhere... so was hoping to try to use the XML driver, but there's not much for documentation that I can see (all I see is the stuff on page 241 of the manual). Meteobridge's native XML is not formatted properly

General Weather Discussion / Still El Niño advisory. (Re: El Niño or La Niña?)
« Last post by elagache on January 12, 2024, 11:10:07 PM »
Dear WeatherCat climate watchers,

It may be a new year, but Da' Usual Suspects are still at it.  As is their tradition, they have issued another communique on the second Thursday of the month.  You can read it here:

https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/enso_advisory/ensodisc.shtml

The synopsis reads as follows: "El Niño is expected to continue for the next several seasons, with ENSO-neutral favored during April-June 2024 (73% chance)."

What is meant by "several seasons" is a bit baffling to me.  At most it could mean only 2 seasons: winter and spring.

The discussion no longer mentions a strong El Niño.  Indeed a sentence in the second paragraph reads: "The most recent IRI plume indicates El Niño will gradually weaken and then transition to ENSO-neutral during spring 2024."  Also to be found in the second paragraph is some wishful forecasting at least in my opinion:  "There are also increasing odds of La Niña in the seasons following a shift to ENSO-neutral."

It isn't that these forecasts are particularly clear at best, but this forecast definitely left me rather uncertain as to what they are expecting.
