My time shows when I hover the mouse cursor over the "Current station" name. It doesn't show like the images that PaulMy posted.
If you click on the X above your user name it will close and the update time will then show there.  No different though than by hovering over your station name.

I also see that in your Bulletin under your station name on the side only Barometer is listed, like Meteochiclana's.  The other items must be visible only by the station's owner.

Enjoy,
Paul

And so it is. Thanks.

I can see all parameters. I have all the boxes ticked for the various sensors. I have Pro and can see a friend's VUE OK. (everything)

Not sure what to do about the baro only issue. Is this the base (non Pro) setup?

On the Zulu time, I do have this set: Time Zone America/Detroit

I have the WL.com free version and uploading from VP2 Pro ISS through Vue console/WiFiLogger.  Can you see all my station parameters - Barometer, Inside Temp/Hum, Local forecast, etc. as these are all ticked?

Mine is set America/Toronto also EST.  Up to a few days ago it did display at local time.  Presumably Davis is making some changes and will get resolved.

I assume that yours is "KomokaWeather". I can see all of your parameters from my weatherlink.com bulletin.

Thanks Greg,
As I can't see all of your parameters I think this confirms one of the differences of Pro vs. free.

Enjoy,
Paul

No, Baro issue has absolutely nothing to do with Base v Pro, Davis just need to fix their stuff. This is not a pro v free issue

All WL2.0 times appear to now be in sync and Baro graphs should be all up and running?

The times and barometer data are OK (and up to date) on the table view of the Bulletin, but (in my case) the barometer graph on the "widget" view is still not caught up (see attached screenshot).

Similarly, on the WL 2.0 mobile app (iOS version) there are no charts available: it says "No chart data available."

Let me repeat my suggestion again that your archive data is not uploading correctly. In other words, it's a local problem not one at wl.com

@johnd So, as you previously suggested, the problem could possibly be the Meteobridge Pro, which does not pause for enough time to allow the WeatherLinkIP device to upload its data to Weatherlink.com?

Yes, but it is only a thought or suggestion. Your symptoms seem to me to be consistent with the archive data not arriving correctly at wl.com. But what's causing the lack of archvie data is unclear.

Are you able to try downloading the archive data into Weatherlink for Windows via the web download protocol? That would check whether the archive data is there or not. Remember you need to use the DID and not the user name these days.

I only have a Mac on the same network as the WeatherLinkIP device. I will try to connect a Windows laptop and do what you suggested. Alternatively, I suppose I could disconnect the Meteobridge Pro for a few hours (or maybe more?) to see if the problem is fixed.

Thanks for the suggestions,

What I'm suggesting os to try a download of the archive records from weatherlink.com. So the Windows PC can be anywhere in the world! It just needs to be running WL for Windows and have your IP logger's DID and account password.

Yes you need to do a Web Download (Device ID (DID) radio button checked and not the Local device ID (MAC Address) which will indicate if the upload data is behind or not. As the upload occurs every hour then up to an hour is ok, anything more than that then WL2.0 will typically not display the Bar graph etc

What have you set the WL upload interval as on the Select Station tab?

Looking closer at that Bar graph, there appears a different issue apart from data being up to date. if the data was behind there would be a little red warning circle and there would be no graph at all with a message saying Graph will update when there is more data etc. Your graph actually has data, just 1 value 1025.1 @ 05:59:00 which would be from quite some hours ago, at least yesterday morning as your current date/time is Dec16/00:45

Normally the Bar graph requires 3 hours of recent data to display, this one appears to be locked up somehow on 1 record?

Update: The problem seems to be fixed now! As I could not get hold of a Windows laptop today, I tried 2 things this morning: (1) I first switched the Meteobridge Pro to "Use internal RF receiver" (i.e., to not use the WeatherLinkIP device). This did not fix the problem, so (2) I also rebooted the Davis VP2 console (power-cycle). The second action seems to have fixed the problem (see attached image; I hope the jagged barometer line will eventually become smooth).

I will wait for a few hours, and then I will switch the Meteobridge Pro back to reading from the WeatherLinkIP device [@Mattk the WL upload interval was set to 1 minute]. It is possible (I guess) that the problem was fixed solely by the rebooting of the console and the WLIP -- I will know for sure by tonight.

Thanks,

Good to have it working for you and the one-minute baro graph looks good...

Interesting that comparing your attached screen shot and what I see on your bulletin has some differences, unless you edited your station display settings.  Your screen shot does not show the temp and rain blocks which show in the bulletin I see, and as expected the inside temp/hum, local forecast and moon/sun blocks are also not visible in the bulletin.

Enjoy,
Paul

Update 2: I have switched the Meteobridge Pro back to reading the weather data from the WLIP device (while allowing for Weatherlink uploads at 1-minute intervals), and the data on Weatherlink.com is still fine: the barometer graph is fine and all data seems to be uploading correctly. It looks like the problem was actually fixed by the console and WLIP reboot.

@PaulMy Indeed, I don't know why there were differences between the screen shot and the bulletin. I believe that all "widgets" are now correctly displayed.
