I decided a NEW thread was more appropriate after reading the informative topic "WL bulletin open for wind gust accurate?" post at
http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=9619.0.
Still tinkering with WL to get the feel for how to set up my website. Now running a re-tasked laptop with Bulletin and StripChart running 24x7 (lid closed) and uploading to my personal site every 15 minutes.
(Pardon if I use incorrect TAGS and FileNames. I am not in front of my WL server.) I had the default "HiWindSpeed" history graphic in the template, but (of course) there hasn't been much wind since installing my ISS, so there hasn't been a lot of data. I noticed that the high-wind-speed and time tag was correct, but the history graphic maxed out the vertical scale at 1.0mph, blowing the graph off the chart if the high wind was anything higher. I tried 1-day and 3-day charts with the same result. I tried the WindRunHistory which has a max scale of 0.5mph no matter the actual wind situation. I have noticed that WL scales the graphics for other histories (such as total rain) when necessary.
Does anyone have experience with this situation? I am wondering if since it has been mostly "zero wind" with a few gusts of 2-3mph is it trying to just scale the entire chart across the datapoints? I suppose I could just wait for some windy days to see if the scale changes, but when playing with my new toy (and boring weather lately) it is like watching a kettle boil.
