Topic: Will the new 01050C be supported by VWS?

[ctccbc]

I'm very excited about the new Acurite 01050C weather centers with internet bridge. I understand that they will upload to Weather Underground? What other sites will there be uploads to? And will you be able to upload data to your own web sites through web tags, etc? Is there plans for Virtual Weather Station and Weather Display to support this station?

As far as VWS is concerned, you will need to contact the author directly about this.

That's the $64,000 question.
Think it's been asked if VWS and WD will support the new AcuRite stuff coming out.

We have been in contact with several 3rd party developers and the ball is rolling- I'm personally not sure of any dates right now though.

I'm sure that Brian will add this to Weather Display as soon as possible.  He's expressed an interest http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=12732.0 and this is the kind of thing he just loves to do.

He must have what, 50 wx stations by now?

He probably has at least 50. I switched to Virtual Weather Station with my Oregon Scientific unit, but would be willing to switch back to WD, or even Cumulus, if I decide to get one of these stations. I'm a NWS meteorologist and I will be quite interested to see the reviews, with regards to data quality, before making the jump. The potential for these units is exciting, and with the low price, I suspect it will get alot more people into the hobby. Hopefully the data quality will be sufficient, and there will be ways to upload to CWOP, PWS, etc, if one of the major software programs supports it.
