Weather Underground table and graph not lining up?
« on: February 08, 2025, 07:06:39 PM »
Hello, I'm new here and new to Weather Underground. I have my personal weather station on Weather Underground.  When I look at the Graph results it doesn't line up with the Table results.  When I look at the table for time and wind speed, when I scroll down to the time in question, there are additional wind etc results without a time? It's like 20 rows so time isn't lining up with the wind, temperature etc. Is there a reason for this? Is it normal or do I have to change some kind of setting to have everything line up? Thank you for your help!

It's just the way it displays depending on the device you are on.
Are you viewing on mobile?
Tables look fine on my large monitor.

I use both my cell phone and our computer. Both are way off. In the morning I've noticed there's maybe two rows that don't have a time and by the end of the day, it's like 25? So annoying so I can't even use the table, it's just not reliable. Are there any other sites that you can add your weather station to free...I have a pretty basic station unfortunately. Acurite Atlas

There are many sites that you can upload for free.

I don't know what the Atlas is capable of.

The ability to upload to "other" sites partly depends on the data format that the site accepts, and also whether your system has the capability to even upload anything to a site that isn't on the system manufacturer's list of sites.

For instance, Ecowit offers upload to ecowitt.net, Weather Underground, WeatherCloud, WeatherObservations, plus "custom" sites. In this case, "custom" means pretty much any server that can understand the data transmitted. Attached is a screenshot from the setup app.

In the screenshot, my Ecowitt gateway is uploading to a system on my home network, but by using a different server 'address' that upload could go to a server of my choice out on the internet.

I don't have an Accurite Atlas, but looking at the product page it appears that Accurite is not so flexible.  Many system manufacturers seem to think that its a great business practice to sell consumers the weather station equipment, but lock down the data to the extent that many of their customers have few options except to pay an  ongoing fee to the system manufacturer for the customer to be able use the data from the system that they just bought.  :shock:

 I suggest anyone considering a new system explore the cost & availability of upload options  before making a purchase of a system.

In some cases, there may be 3rd party equipment that can bypass the manufacturer's locked down gateway to liberate the user's data. :)

Ok great thank you for all your knowledge!! I've tried emailing weather underground and no response at all! It's just maddening for me when numbers don't match up! I look at weather underground, the display and then myacurite app and the app acts like it just picks a number out of the sky lol. The display and weather underground seems pretty consistent:) Thanks again for all your assistance!

There is a signature line that a member here uses, "Its not you, its WU".
 :D :D :D

Its 'normal' for Weather Underground to ignore emails. Its not you. :)

There isn't much that can be done about WU, but if you post some screenshots here of the apparent anomaly someone here may be able to provide more info.
