WU PWS Advisories

(1/2) > >>

W Thomas:
When checking my current data yesterday at the Wunderground site I noticed a link at the top that made mention that my data was being received late
and /or different time based errors.  Has anyone else gotten such an advisory or is there something actually wrong with my timing I haven't noticed yet??

I am using Dimension to sync my servers RTC with the closest time server to me (Virginia Tech ) and I also have VWS to sync the station data with the servers RTC. The two times match fine but there are times when I see latency issues ( or worse an outage ) with my DSL connection so maybe thats what is up setting their data.. Just curious so I can fix whatever is happening :)  I wouldn't want to be the station with bad data that hurts everyone else :)

Curly:
Did you change your time a few weeks ago?

I had the same notice from WU when the time changed. I think it verifies that there is a one hour time difference.

Cienega32:
I had that notice as well but I wrote it off to system time error on my end even with a daily time-sync. Somehow my box would pick up some extra time if I left FFox running. I think it stopped after their last small update to FFox as it hasn't happened for awhile.

I figured it was somehow connected to my system clock picking up at least 3 minutes a day if I left FFox open.

karona:
I had a PWS alert for data 'too early/too late' following the change in DST. I checked the PC and Console time were both correct, and the PC time zone was also correct, but the console timezone was set to GMT +3, which changed to GMT +2 after the clocks went back. The console handled the time change properly, but not the timezone change.

I did change the time but I believe I did so the day after...so that could be what's going on..
I don't remember checking WU since the time change..or at least the current data where the alert could be seen..

Maybe that's all it was and nothing more .... that would be a change for sure :)

Thanks!
