WU-History
saratogaWX:
When you see data on the wunderground page for your station, then the API will be able to return that data via the script.

Thanks ken It is adding data but it is old blank data I will have to wait until it gets to this year.
zeppline:

racenet:
Just wondering, how does this script updates the cached data? Does it happen when the wxwuhistory.php is run or do we need to have to set something else?
saratogaWX:
The WXDailyHistory.php will try to get a complete 'yesterday' daily file (when run on a specific day), and a complete prior-month file when run on a 'month' display. Generally, random traffic to the page will keep the day and month files up-to-date. The 'week' file is ever-changing, so updates when requested by the WU-History page. The 'year' requests are just an accumulation of up-to 12 month files, so may only result in fetching the current month (for current year) requests. Prior year requests are generally from the cache, and only refreshed if you delete a cache file.
So, no, I don't have a cron running to keep the cache refreshed - just organic traffic to the site (including web crawlers) is generally enough.
