Download feature missing on new PWS format
« on: April 06, 2019, 07:51:40 AM »
On previous PWS format, in Table view, there was the option to Download. I could then copy and paste into my spreadsheet and go to town with the data. Bummed that it’s missing. Hoping that it will be brought back.

I noticed the same thing, but was able to copy the data & get it into a spreadsheet, even though the format is somewhat different. Would be better if they would allow you to download it as in the past.

You can still download. Just use the old site address. Yes you have to use lowercase in the URL for the part that says "?id" but your station ID capitalization doesn't matter.

See my profile signature for proper old site link.

Thanks for the suggestions.  This thread is difficult to read but what I found is that I can manually add my station ID in and get the old data back.

This is the URL front end:

https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?id=  [ADD YOUR ID HERE]  #history

So it looks like this:

https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?id=ISPLITDA5#history

This is the old dashboard we know and love.  I have bookmarked it and it doesn't default to the horrible new dials format.

This is the new "round dials" dashboard url format:

https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/ISPLITDA5                               


On previous PWS format, in Table view, there was the option to Download. I could then copy and paste into my spreadsheet and go to town with the data. Bummed that it’s missing. Hoping that it will be brought back.
