Weather Station Hardware > WeatherElement Weather Station
Coming up on 30 stations!
SLOweather:
Last Thursday I headed~ 72 miles up California 1 to the southern end of Big Sur to Pacific Valley School (14 miles into Monterey County from San Luis Obispo County) to help get their WeatherElement station on-line.
Mrs. SLOweather and I are familiar with that stretch of road, as Kirk Creek Campground, a few more miles up the road, is one of our favorite places to get away to. We were there a few years ago ( Oct 2004?) when some aftershocks of the San Simeon earthquake rolled through.
What an incredible place to go to school! Across the street (highway) is the Pacific Ocean. They generate all their own electricity (solar/batteries/inverters with propane generator backup). Internet is via a couple of fat pipe WildBlue Excede feeds. And the student/teacher ratio is about 2/1.
The Vantage Vue/WeatherElement data hub station was provided by a grant from PG&E.
We have one more station up in Atascadero that will be the 30th official WeatherElement station to go on-line, not counting 3 or 4 development stations that are on-line to test our new WeatherLab cellular station, and other Data Hubs in development.

Congratulations Chris!
Looks like WE is beginning to catch on.

Atascadero is now online! When I have a little time, I'll explain my setup, issues, and solutions to get the system online.

SLOweather:
Sheesh, WeatherElement must be growing if I have to find out here on WxForum that we have a new station on-line. ;)
Congrats, Micky! I know you had an interesting go of getting it all working. Can't wait to hear the story.
I'll go into the database and add your station to the SLO County, North County, USA, and John Lindsey Weather Center Networks.
Chris
