I have emailed them twice about the problems with missing data and website issues and never had a response. :groan:
I like wunderground but it's shame about the reliability of the service and it doesn't encourage me to spend money with them,
sadly I haven't found an alternative I think is any better, but I'm open to suggestions if anybody has one ?

Still seeing missing entries of my site on WU. Another 35 of 5 minute uploads are not on WU with often 2 entries missing in a row and once it was 3 missing in a row. I only had two instances of this error:

I think WU are screwed at the moment. my webcam picture (image.jpg) is uploaded every 2 minutes (so more than their acceptable 60 seconds per image) is less than 150kb and my ftp log shows it being accepted, yet fails to actually be processed by them to my webpage on WU.

I've raised a ticket with them and posted on their forums, yet no response. no doubt due to the tens of thousands of complaints too. I dont think they can cope.

Yes, it's not looking good but I hope this trouble will end somehow as there are plenty of good stations transmitting on WU. I have had another 20 missing but only 5 in the last 12 hours. I have also tried editing my status note but after a while it reverts back to the old message. :(

Wunderground coming clean noted on other thread.

My webcam (URL scraped by them) has started showing on my station page again.

Status change still not sticking yet.

Hi John,

You live in a lovely part of the world. I just had a look at your records page and a little bit of editing is needed. if those numbers were true you'd probably be dead and under water. :D

It certainly is. The station readings are compromised by the woods and the effect of the river valley on the prevailing winds, but I'm a beekeeper and really want to know the conditions affecting the bees.

Tell me about it. I have been struggling for two years with cheap hardware. I decided recently that I really deserved a Davis station.

I am working on a script to get my history copied from CumulusMX on the Raspberry Pi to be edited by Cumulus 1 on the PC before being copied back.

Normal service resumed?

Huge log files again..

Code: Select all

2018-04-10 11:38:12.982 WU update: An error occurred while sending the request.

I've noticed that the graphs are showing data at 2 - 3 minute intervals, instead of every 5 minutes.
