Some day, WU will give us our Goldstar rating back. Until then I guess I must wonder what I did to lose it and promise the WU gods never to do it again!
I have politely asked WU on why, at least my IONTARIO226, sites are no longer showing the Gold Star. I can understand the Bloomsky IONTARIO1189 not being Gold Star as it is usually 5 min, but quite often 10 min or longer. Whereas the other is updated from Davis/Cumulus and pretty well always 5 min, and with good data.
And thanks for the compliment on the webcam. However I wish I had my Hikvision working again, or at least another webcam from that location as it gave a much better sky and weather view and evening sunset from top of the roof.
Enjoy,
Paul
Lest We Forget!
Two questions. How do you politely communicate with WU? Please? You are the best service ever? I own a $100,000 piece of IBM equipment to upload to IBM's WU?
Second question. What software do you use to upload webcam photos to WU? Does Weatherlink allow that capability or do you use something else?
By the way, WU has not restored Goldstar status to my PWS. I can't sleep at night, my dog doesn't like me any more, and my wife has put me into the doghouse--all because of after numerous months of non-stop Goldstar status from WU, I no longer have it, for reasons that students around the world are studying why. Maybe it is because a nearby PWS (15 miles away) is reporting temperatures of about 100 degrees in a Chicago suburb in November, so maybe my station might have caught whatever disease this nearby station has, thereby the Goldstar status should be removed from my station pending further review and examination. This PWS outlier is viewable here:

Priorites by Trump are pick a cabinet, repeal Obamacare, pick a supreme court justice, resolve the Goldstar issue, reduce poverty... So being fourth on this list isn't too bad, all things considered.
