2nd idea pool. Nathan needs ideas

[Skywatch]

Additionally, many of you are sending us Solar Radiation, UV, ET data to us, but we're not currently displaying it. I'm thinking of writing up a page on the Backyard Stations site that explains a little more what Solar/UV sensors does, so any information you all wish to contribute to that you think might be beneficial would be great. Also, what are some ways we could make use of your Solar/UV data on WeatherBug.com and display it in a way that would interest you?

Well solar radiation data is vital to solar users. For example many houses are installing solar panels as part of this "Eco" movement. Solar technology is a fast spreading trend. More and more things reply on solar now days.

UV is important for those who know the dangers of being out in the sun too long. Last year I found that out the hard way.

ET is good for knowing when and how much to water. Irrigation is a big deal especially after all the drought activity.

All sounds great, One thing I'd like to see is UV index displayed in a dial or color display that gives the sevarity. Like Green=0-2, Yellow= 3-5(Yellow was too bright) ,Orange= 6-7, Red 8-10, Purple 11+. And if possable under station info in the profile you enter in your skin type and it calculates the sunburn risk and time. For solar radiation the number in W/m2 is given but also counts the hours in a day the sun was shinning. Or gives a daily solar factor that can be used by solar users such as houses that are solar powered. For ET is displayed and like UV index be displayed on a color chart each color indicates a sevarity so someone uses WeatherBug looks at the ET and the sevarity and is able to determine what irrigation needs are.

You guys can beat Weather Undergrounds UV and solar. You have to hit the refresh button to get the latest solar and UV data with them. It would be nice for UV and solar to be updated like all the other data.

Another thing that would be cool. Customizable data boards. User chooses background graphics like wood or solid color. The dial colors like Brass, Silver, or custome color. And the user to be able to select the data displayed. And by hitting a submit button it builds a virtual weather console like one of those classic weather stations or like those made by Maximum INC. And has a full screen feature so you can leave it up as a weather bulletin and look nice.

IDK, Maybe a crazy idea of mine. Main thing I like is something that looks nice. And something that can go full screen if forecast or other local info isn't really nessisary. Just the current.

Like the idea for the UV data. I'll definitely pass it on. The customizable data boards sound fun too. Not sure if they'll want to get into that, but I think it's neat. You never know though! I'll certainly suggest it. BTW, do you have a Mac? There's an app called WeatherSnoop for Mac that has a lot of these custom gauges similar to what you're talking about. It's really fun. That's the closest thing I've seen to what you're wanting to see.

Don't have a Mac. I use Weather Display which is highly customizable.

Yeah, WD is customizable too. WeatherSnoop has a lot of that customization stuff in there and looks gorgeous. It's Mac-only though. I did tell my CTO about all your suggestions (the ad-free for members as well), so he'll pass them onto the right people. I don't have any updates as to when any of it can happen, but at least I did my part in giving them the message.

BTW, our WeatherBug.com weather site's down for the weekend. Should be back up later tomorrow. Moving it to new hosting which'll really speed things up. It'll be a good move.

Also, have you had a chance to see my new Backyard Stations page yet? What's your thoughts on it?

Next thing I'm hoping to tackle are the groups. Get those cleaned up and understandable again. I'll try to get on that this week once my other tasks are taken care of.

Excellent. That's what I was shooting for. I'm going to try to do the same for groups next. I'm also tweaking around on the menu bar right now and moving stuff around to make it better too. Before long everything should be much less confusing. Glad to know we're moving in the right direction!

Having more maintenance issues. Plus and Backyard Stations aren't fully working right now.

Yep, I've been getting upload error messages all day.

I think we're back. Stations seem to be working again.

[wxbugnathan]

I've revamped the Local Weather Groups section of the groups. Let me know what you think! I'll be working on the weather interests groups and support discussions shortly, as well as sending out a poll to see which interest groups we should keep/delete.

[wxbugnathan]

I've rolled out new support discussions this week to replace our old (and horrible) forums setup. Let me know what you think. Interest Groups will be getting the makeover next over the next week.

I've also rolled out a Help/Feedback group for the Backyard Community itself:
http://backyard.weatherbug.com/group/help

[wxbugnathan]

Another surprise tonight. We've rolled out cleaner groups and interest groups pages. Let me know what you think! I've just got the core interest groups listed right now. The rest we'll be having a poll about which ones to keep and upgrade and which ones to send off to neverland.

[wxbugnathan]

FYI, I'm testing an early beta copy of WeatherBug 7 now. The interface is WAY simpler, and I believe people are going to love it, although we've still got a lot more work to do with it. It's far from "perfect" though. As soon as my CTO gives the green light, I'll post a link here for users to beta test it. One BIG thing people will love is that the Backyard and Professional networks have been merged, just like WeatherBug.com, so full Backyard homescreen support is here.

Additionally, most of our infrastructure changes have been done, but Backyard Stations still need to be moved over. Once we have one more maintenance period and move them over, we can begin focusing on Backyard Webcams and anything else we're ready to cook up.

Lastly, I'm getting a status on Backyard and Mobile apps. I haven't heard from our web techs yet, but I'm trying to get a solid ETA (besides "soon") to at least let the community know when we're looking at it.

So we're getting there! Just thought I'd update! I'm posting the update here before I post to the entire community so that I can tell a handful of users first, then make the bigger announcements later.

Well, certainly appreciate that!  I went through the trouble of configuring my PWS to upload to WB, as I have a new Verizon "feature phone" with the Weatherbug mobile app.  I was certainly irritated to find that the only choices for data were schools and corporations, no personal weather stations!!!  It still kind of bugs me that Weatherbug has historically regarded us weather nuts, who probably have better equipment and maintain their systems better than most school teachers or corporations doing the same thing, as "backyard".  I've been running my station for nearly 4 years, and data is QC checked by CWOP and MADIS.  Although it is in my backyard, there is nothing backyard about it, if you catch my drift.

[ocala]

Nathan I think it's great that you are trying to improve WB. It sounds you really do care.
The problem I have is that you don't seem to be making the decisions. The other vendors here, Joe, Tim, Brian, and Steve all represent their companies first hand. Meaning they make the decisions. All we get from you is that that I'll pass it along. It seems to me that if WB really did care they would have someone on here who makes the decisions.
To me at least it seems WB has an ulterior motive. Whether  it be money or recognition I don't know.  For people like Joe at Weather For You it's a labor of love. He knows he can't compete with TWC but he still does it. Although I don't use Weather Display Brian is nothing short of amazing in how involved he is with the software.
WB to me seems like the thrill seekers out chasing tornadoes. They don't really care they are just along for the ride.
Just my opinion.

 

[Sigdigit]

You would think a weather site would eagerly embrace their most dedicated and passionate user base.  In 6 hours, I will have been uploading data to WB for 24 hours.  Does my data show up on their site?  No.  I don't get how you can see your data immediately after setting up at Weather Underground, yet WB takes "up to three days" according to their website.  And yes Nathan, I see you are interactive here, but your bosses are unresponsive.  Some changes, like the complaint I have that PWS's are not represented on the mobile version were talked about two months ago.  I'm wondering how WB got into bed with Verizon, when WU would probably have been far more responsive.

We finished most of our high-end infrastructure changes, so now we have some more time on our hands to work on other projects. We've got a beta of WeatherBug 7 desktop coming soon. I'll be announcing it on our Backyard site as soon as our PR department gets everything together they want me to talk about. As soon as we get WeatherBug 7 done, mobile should be next (or sooner). I'm letting my CTO CLEARLY know how much you want it and telling him how much of a top priority this should be.

Our CTO used to be the one answering all these posts, but he's swamped on our professional projects right now (we're trying to rollout a ton of new projects, GHG network, Boundary Layer Network, etc). So that's why I'm here to answer things. I do report directly to our CTO, and I'm sure giving him every last bit of feedback that comes along here. Any changes I can directly implement, I take care of. For those I can't, I'll keep pushing until they're done. I don't give up easily.

[CNYWeather]

I uploaded with Weather Display. No issues what so ever.

Did my data show up on the maps or my webcam? Nope.
All the schools do, so I tried. Sorry.

I like how you're trying to fix this Nathan, so nothing against what you're doing.

Weather Underground has no issues using or displaying our data, so if you guys
get to that point from us "weather nuts" i'm sure you'll get conditions and data from
a lot more of us.



SO LONG FOR NOW!

I'm pushing to re-architect our servers to cut down that delay. Our Backyard database is the only thing now running on the old server, and once we have "one more big maintenance period", our Backyard database will have all the bandwidth and scalability it needs. Once that's done, we need to do some serious work with it. Cut delays, fix a rainfall issue, International Stations are difficult to work with on the server right now, we need to add webcams, etc. We need to move it though before we work on it so we can pull off these things with less downtime. As for Wundergroud, their support is less responsive than us (me), but they do have their PWS infrastructure down though, and we're certainly going to borrow inspiration from it.

You remind me of Flag who got booted of 2 months ago for insulting comments if you recall.

 I find your reply insulting and disrespectfull. No one told you to buy WeatherBug Pro. You spent your own time and money. And if you think it's a crime to be 19, maybe it's just as much of a crime to be what ever age you are. How about that!

You may not like something but others do it's all opinions. And you calling me a "know it all" for being 19? You need to shut it!

Before I got into weather I knew nothing. But the one thing I learned most about weather stations and weather watching is how many jerks are associated with this hobby. I try not to start arguments, but when someone says something personally demeaning to me like "For how many years can you assure he is listening as you can see there are some of us here who has been around for some time and been there and done that, But I guess for an 19 year old you know everything. Gee your parents starting to get smarter yet?" This absolutly pisses me off. And I will come after you for it. Here on WXforum I demand the same respect I try to give others. John you can appologise for that immature remark of yours or get ready for a steamed argument.

I don't want to argue. But I'm not affraid to get my point of respect across.

Weatherbug sells overpriced hardware to schools and the whole ploy is using grant money to do it. They've found a free source of income (basically from the government) and leveraging that to sell products. I went to one of their seminars here in Atlanta and was not impressed, ESPECIALLY for the money you have to invest.

Listen, I've sent my stuff to WB for years and do you think I can find my data? It's buried so deep in their site you'll never find it. On top of that, all they want to show are stations that have been purchased through them. You have to dig REALLY hard to find a station that isn't theirs.

Sorry, John is correct. And yes, I'm thinking about quit sending data to them. It's all take and no give.

[Sigdigit]

Nathan, if you are dilligent pursuing these issues as you are responding to our posts, I'm sure things will get done.  Keep at it, you have a lot of eyes on you that want to see these things happen.

SO LONG FOR NOW!  

Backyard Station data should be showing up OK for publishers at WeatherBug.com. For anyone that's sending us data, but not seeing your data on the map, let me know at anytime and I'll check into it. Our system's been messing with Lat/Lons and putting people's stations in the wrong area.

As for Backyard Webcams, I've got the plan on the table and we're discussing the roadmap. I wanted this rolled out last year, but it's a good thing we didn't. It would have been horrible. Performance would have been poor and unreliable, and it would have been "half-baked". With our new infrastructure changes we're working on, we can "do it right" the first time. I'm hoping to get our infrastructure changes and this in place this summer if all goes as planned.

Your data should be showing up at WeatherBug.com OK. Let me know if it isn't and I'll help you out. WeatherBug 7 (which I'm beta testing on my machine as we speak and we'll be releasing it as a beta for you all to test as soon as PR gives us the greenlight) makes it MUCH easier to view your Backyard Station data. As a WeatherBug app itself, it's still in its VERY early stages and missing a LOT of functionality for now, but the basics are there and Backyard Stations are 100% baked into it. That part you'll like. The rest we need to work on to bring it up-to-speed with v6. I'm running v6 and v7 simultaneously. I'm also chatting with our CTO to revamp Plus so it's free from the get go for Backyard Station owners and much easier to manage (no more Plus code issues).

[wxbugnathan]

Nathan, if you are dilligent pursuing these issues as you are responding to our posts, I'm sure things will get done.  Keep at it, you have a lot of eyes on you that want to see these things happen.

Amen to that! Rest assured that as long as it takes, whatever it takes, as long as I'm working for WeatherBug (and I plan to be here for a long time), I'll keep working for you and keep pushing for more and better changes. I don't give up.

[smorris]

We've got a beta of WeatherBug 7 desktop coming soon.

Looking forward to this, since you told us WB7 would be available for the Mac OS X!

Yeah, they sent me just the PC copy of WB7 right now. Trying to see where's the Mac copy. I need to get my hands on it and test it. I need a full WB on my Mac too! I think we are going to put it in the Mac App Store too when done so updates can flow through the MAS and it'll make it easier to download it.
