A quick summary about me & my Weather Station. I have had a station running here in Midmar (which is about 20 miles due West of Aberdeen) since the end of 2005. I used a La Crosse 2300 clone (Hyundai WS05) until this Spring when I changed to a wired Davis VP2 with Solar that a colleague brought over from the US. I was surprised how similar the data was from the two stations and am still running them in parallel. I've got a webcam uploading to Weather Display but haven't got round to adding to my WDL site yet - I will one day soon. Also last year I purchased a Lightning detector from Frank Kooimans in Holland and really need to get on with assembling it.
The weather in Midmar affects daily life here dramatically - especially in Winter, although we don't get the severe winters we used to. I've lived here for 25 years and wish I had installed a weather station earlier! I have some temperature records for earlier years which I'll probably import into WD one day. I use Weather Display & WDL - fantastic programs if rather complex - well done Brian & Julian :-)
The SWN looks like a great idea. I'll soon be asking a few foolish questions on the forum as although a bit of a techie I'm always surpised when I get computers to work - especially with complex things like WD!
