Title: Web cams uploads
Post by: mmorris on January 02, 2009, 09:17:56 PM

Is any one sending web cams pictures to weatherunderground, Mine has not been connecting to the ftp server most of the day and the pictures on the web site seem to be not updating around Ohio.. So anyone else having problem?
Darn I just ran a new cable to my camera and was hoping to see if the quality was better on the video replays don't it always happen when you try and make an improvement that the web messes up. I don't know about this cloud computing good thing I'm not relaying on the cloud to save my cam pictures and have alternative places to save them.

I noticed that too.  I did not look at a lot of other cameras - but the ones I did look at have not updated for the past several hours.  My last update was 4-5 hours ago.

Looks like their server is down. Nothing has updated in over 4 hours. I sent an email this morning because I was having problems uploading, but no response yet. Maybe they are upgrading the server? Wishful thinking...

Mine quit updating yesterday.  I thought it might have something to do with the leap second problem.  But that would have probably messed them up on Thursday.  Oh well.  Stay tuned..........

I got a reply from them this morning.

"Thank you for the bug report. We'll look into this issue.Thanks for supporting Weather Underground!"

It could be a while.  :-(
