Goldie, do you physically fill all the info in yourself(light blue areas) or is it taken from a weather station on site? I ask because I know the BBC have countrywide weather watchers feeding live info to them

We have a Davis weather station on the hill opposite the house. It transmits via RF to the house, then by USB to a computer where it's analysed by a specialiat programme (Weather Display), then it's sent by ftp (every 15 minutes) to our website and various other sites, including the Met Office's WOW. I think WOW is much better than the BBC's Weather Watchers - which depend on people inputting the data.
As famers we're obsessed by the weather, even when it's not what we want!
Thankyou, that WOW is wow too. Very in depth & useful. Because I spend so much time outdoors I'm a bit 'weather obsessive' forewarned
is forearmed I think covers it. Differing weather conditions dictate to me what I can & can't do, if I can do a job or have to stay at home.
