Alternative to Weather Exchange
« on: February 25, 2017, 08:07:01 PM »
I've been using Weather Exchange for several years and really liked the program. I liked the ability to see neighboring stations at a glance, the over all layout was great. Unfortunately it has not worked for weeks now.
Is there anything out there that is similar?

I've been using Weather Exchange also for years and now it's broken probably for good. Darn it. Can't even get a weather advisory on it now.
Still looking around for an alternative but besides Weather Bug, I'm not finding anything.  ](*,)

Is Weatherbug showing PWS yet. Last time I checked they were not.

Unknown as I haven't gotten around to installing the desktop application.

No, they are not.  It does not appear they will be anytime soon.  :-|

One site may be of interest is the Mesonet Observations from NWS. http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/map/?obs=true&wfo=sgx&basemap=OpenStreetMap&boundaries=true,false&obs_popup=true is the one I use.  This one is on NWS San Diego's Current Conditions/Observations page.  You can change the settings/maps to your preferences.  Different offices may have it in different locations so you may have to dig a little.
