FYI Folks:
I discovered another problem when installing the scripts:
I am getting discrepancies in the rainfall amounts. There appears to be a problem in
Weather-Display (10.37R-(b81)). The climate reports are not always capturing the daily rainfall amounts correctly or they are missing.
The following reports have the issue:
dailynoaareport.htm
climatedataout.htm
I checked several weather websites that are using this script and they have the same problem. You can verify this by looking at your monthly and yearly rain totals in the History Charts and compare to your AJAX Dashboard. The charts are
under reporting rainfall amounts in some cases over 20%. The totals on the AJAX Dashboard appear to be okay.
I tried downloading my monthly WLK files again from
WeatherLink and the data is still incorrect in the two reports listed above. I have seen several days where no rain is reported when in fact there was rain. The monthly rain totals however reflect the missing rain data in those two reports. The script from Wildwood Weather adds the daily totals for the month and because the individual days have bad or missing data the totals are low. I also verified my data using the WeatherLink NOAA reports.
So for now I have elected not to deploy the Wildwood Scripts. This discrepancy is not good as it results in 2 different data values for the same metric. This doesn't make us web masters look good.
Hopefully someone has a fix for this issue.
Regards,
