Topic: WU - Let us know your issues

[CW2274]

Sorry if it's a dumb question, but is there a way to make this page work again?

https://www.wunderground.com/swf/Rapid_Fire.swf?station=KAZTUCSO192

That uses Flash.  Flash is something the internet is abandoning for internet standards.

You might be able to get your browser loaded up with the Flash player, but I kind of doubt wunderground is still feeding data to it.

Thanks. I thought I read somewhere else here that it doesn't use flash.
It was the only thing I found useful with WU....

[CW2274]

Never mind, it does indeed use flash.

So is WU going to stay with Flash for as long as possible?

Wunderground dropped flash some time ago.  That particular URL was from 2 user interface updates ago.  It worked for quite a while after the first UI update, though.

Interesting.  It loads and populates in Firefox and Edge but doesn't auto-update.

I have no issue using this link. It's slow every 1 minute updates but that's the user sending rapid fire data at 1 minute intervals. Using Chrome.
I see no problem at all.

I have not had time to read the list of issues but I hope someone has mentioned/Complained about the Exclusion of Custom data display under History And the Exclusion of the ability to "Download" my station Data when I created a Custom Table display.  VERY disappointed in the loss of these features.  I can live with the generally Bad new layout but losing access to my past data is a Deal Breaker for me.  I have a small orchard and I was able to use MY tabular data to calculate Degree Days over the last several months.

Am also missing the "Download" button functionality when I look at my monthly data in tabular form.  I used this regularly to grab my daily data back via a text file and drop it in an Excel spreadsheet for keeping track of daily historical data.  This download function disappeared in 2018 for a bit when the site was having issues and came back so hope it comes back when they figure things out again.

The page itself loads fine, I just get no data, like I'm not sending any.

Adobe Flash,  I'm not sure if any browser will still support it. I had to stop using for website couple years ago.

It was working fine on FF til this new WU junk showed up.   

[mdv]

On new style dashboard, the map does not load properly - bottom is truncated. [I am using Chrome]

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Using CTRL + Refresh fixes the truncation issue (suggesting the WU software is passing incorrect caching instructions), but the the hyperlink to Wundermap uses space that could be otherwise better uitlised by the map. Perhaps this hyperlink could be moved outside the map container altogether, or at least moved to the bottom right hand corner underneath the (C)Mapbox notation, with the actual map data underlaid (like it is with the Mapbox notation).

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]


Edit: Shortly afterwards, CTRL + Refresh fails to fix the truncation issue - WU Team perhaps working on this as I type?

Then a little while later, after restarting my browser, the map loads fine the first time, but thereafter will only display the truncated map and CTRL + Refresh will not resolve the issue

And yet a little bit later, my dashboard, in all permutations of browser navigation, is showing a truncated map which does not resolve with CTRL + Refresh. [Now I am really confused].

WU Team must be working this issue as I type, or else I have a Chrome gremlin - now back to situation outlined at start of this post.

Using the Android WU App on my tablet. Since the new update when everything moved to new servers I see a mix-up between my station data (KCOBLACK2) and the Air Force Academy (KAFF) data. my station location is no where near the KAFF station. How does one get this corrected?

[mdv]

Curious as to why the dashboard map is different to the map on the forecast main page - different layout and different bugs? I will leave it as a rhetorical question - I think I know the answer already.

If you feel inclined, you can play 'spot the difference' - e.g no PWS icon in forecast map.

Browsers still support Flash.  You just have to know how to set it up.

Wunderground dropped flash some time ago.  That particular URL was from 2 user interface updates ago.  It worked for quite a while after the first UI update, though.

If Wunderground dropped flash some time ago, then why is it still offering this flash sticker here: https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KOKSTILL4/widgets

WU's Rapid Fire sticker updates every few seconds on my site but strangely enough doesn't do it on the WU page where it's offered here:  https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KOKSTILL4/widgets

[theofficepest]

it works if you specify a frequency

WU,
Can you please add back the ability to generate a list of all weather stations by country?

Even though you can get this far:
https://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/hardwareandsoftware.asp

When you try and use this:
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

You end up with this:
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

I hope this is just temporary and that WU brings this back. This was a helpful feature to have especially as new station models came out you could gauge their popularity. You could also compare growth of brands. Although it only worked for for US stations it would have also been nice to have had access to other countries. WU please bring this back.

Also for some less popular station brands/models like Onset it helped owners connect with one another.

We used this information in this thread and it was quite popular:

Pretty please  and thank you for all your work.

To the Wunderground Staff opening post,

Station ID: KCONEDER59
Browser: Chrome Version 73.0.3683.86 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Issue #1: Link for the station under name column in this URL: https://www.wunderground.com/member/devices does not work.

Issue #2: Basic data like current temperature shown on this URL: https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/co/nederland/KCONEDER59?cm_ven=localwx_today, TODAY tab, appears to be correct, but does not agree at all with what is shown using the IOS wunderground application. The wunderground application for IOS no longer has accurate data.

Issue #3: clicking on the, History TAB of this URL: https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/co/nederland/KCONEDER59?cm_ven=localwx_today, results in this URL: https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/us/co/nederland/KFNL/date/2019-4-3?cm_ven=localwx_history with historical data from a completely different station in Ft. Collins CO.

Issue #4: Clicking on the 10 day forecast TAB of this URL: URL: https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/co/nederland/KCONEDER59?cm_ven=localwx_today, results in a 404 error page that then SOMETIMES redirects automatically to this URL: https://www.wunderground.com/forecast/us/co/nederland/KCONEDER59?cm_ven=localwx_10day. The evidence of the momentary 404 error page is captured in the Chrome Tab Title which now says Error | Weather Underground.

Issue #5: Clicking on the Calendar TAB of this URL: URL: https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/co/nederland/KCONEDER59?cm_ven=localwx_today, also brings up a page for a different station in Fort Collins CO. Same as issue #3.

Hopefully this information will help you chase the bugs.

Thanks.

Summary section on the new dashboard is working now, except for the decimal precision.

EDIT: My Devices now takes you to your dashboard when you click on the name of your station. However, My Devices is no longer a tab on your dashboard.

[rweber9594]

I have two main issues:

1.  Under "My Devices" says I'm offline when I'm actually reporting when I go to my PWS station site (Soundside KFLGULFB24).  However under "My Devices" my site id is KFLGULFB282. 

2.  Forecast is for a different city.  Instead of getting a forecast for Gulf Breeze, Fl., I get a forecast for Haines City, Fl.  I tried to fix this by deleting my original device (Soundside KFLGULFB24) and adding my device back again but all accomplished was getting a new ID (KFLGULFB282).  Had the same problem.  Any help would be appreciated.  I feel like I really messed things up when I deleted my original device.

No can do. Those won't be coming back

Well, we can see some progress today.  The summary data at least follows the timeline properly but is still missing the decimal granularity.  It is encouraging to see that being fixed.

The page design and layout is still utterly unusable.  That is probably final so it really doesn't matter what else happens.  Stick a spork in it; it's dead.
