Weather Forecast ???

[odintheterrible]

Greetings from Spain

Since installing the new weatherstation and the Ecowitt GW 1000 everything has been running exremely smoothly.

However, because of where we live in Spain, the weather forescast is extremely inaccurite ! At the moment we have clear blue, clodless skies yet the station reports in Cumules "stormy, much rain" and on the weather staton base unit (Brandson WPD 304465) there are 2 clouds with rain falling !!! LOL

Is there any way to adjust how Cumulus reads/calculates the weather forecast so it can be manually biased/adjusted ??? I'm asking this as where we live appears to be in somewhat of a 'blind spot' for the weather as we seldom get any of the rain / storms etc which the local weather service announce for the area in conjunction with the local Ayantamiento's (Townhall) adverse weather warnings.

Thanks

Cumulus will take your weather stations data and then make a forecast. I suggest if your weatherstation is reporting clouds and rain, then your weather station is not reporting correctly.

firstly is your Barometric pressure set correctly or in line with other local stations? then is the Temp/Humidity similar to other stations, since you have not given any sign you have a website, we will be guessing what your location and surroundings and weather data is.

You can do some fine tuning to the forecast 'ranges' but,

..where we live appears to be in somewhat of a 'blind spot' for the weather as we seldom get any of the rain / storms etc which the local weather service announce for the area in conjunction with the local Ayantamiento's (Townhall) adverse weather warnings.

That suggests there little we can do with your very micro-climate
