New Acurite station; unreliable WU reporting
« on: January 10, 2018, 12:26:32 PM »
I guess I shouldn't have fallen for the Black Friday sales.  I bought a new Acurite 5-in-1 station to replace my 8 year old setup.  I had hoped it would be more reliable.   The wall display seems realiable enough, and the MyAcurite.com reporting seems reliable enough, but the reporting to Weather Underground is BEYOND attrocious.

I'm literally missing large swathes of time for reports.  Either it reports no value for variables like temperature, or it just doesn't send anything to Weather Underground.

<sigh>  I guess I need to dust off the Meteobridge I was trying to use in the past with no success.

A search online and on  AcuRite forum will tell you it's a Weather Underground problem NOT AcuRite's

....which ultimately means it'll never get fixed.  Okay, message heard loud and clear. :)

Take a look at the Weather Underground forum here. Lot's of things going on with the WU website as of late.

Mine seem to be fine now.   

I'm so used to blaming unreliable 'ol Acuwrong that I didn't even thing it was Weather Underground.
