I've had some annoyances with the old software I was using to upload the current weather to Weather Underground, so I've switched to a different software package and a new weather page right here on the blog.
The current weather at the Frozen North is here. The page will update every five minutes, and I'm going to add some history graphs when I get the chance. One benefit of the new page is that I can now display the temperature and humidity inside the house, which Weather Underground wouldn't support. I'm still trying to find a fix for one significant bug, that the USB driver for the interface to the weather station crashes with some regularity. The symptom on the weather page is that the current conditions are all blank, and fixing it requires either unplugging the USB cord to the weather station, or rebooting the computer. For now, I've got the computer set to reboot overnight, but I'd really like to find a more permanent fix. If anyone knows about fixing a flaky Silicon Labs USB driver on Mac OS X, let me know. I've already done the obvious stuff like making sure I have the most current drivers, and I'm not the only person to report the problem. Posted at 12:38 PM | Permalink | | | |
