Weather Underground: Getting on the Forecast page

[b.e.wilson]

I'm using Cumulus to update to wunderground (http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstat ... =KUTCAPIT2). I've waited over a week for the station to appear on the forecast page (click the Current Conditions link toward the top_ but the Field Station is not listed. Anyone know why the station would not appear on the forecast page?

Your station is listed as a nearbystation the forecasts are allways from official metar-stations

I'm not sure that's true. Put in zip code 84604 and I think you'll get Hillcrest, Orem, which is my station (KUTOREM14). I was hoping to have the Capitol Reef Field Station listed the same way, but I don't even see it in nearby stations (the Station Select button). I'm thinking I have something configured wrong, but I can't figure what.

Yes, it's possible to have a personal weather station supplying the 'weather at a glance', and it should be listed in the nearby stations. I recall someone else having the same issue just after they had started uploading to WU. I think there's some kind of manual process involved; it may be worth sending them an email.

Well I see it in the nearby stations but my setting for wundergound are in Dutch I've another view as you have http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/fin ... =KUTCAPIT2 hmm seems not to be yours .. I think Steve has right it can take some time and wuderground isn't fast in changes..

This is what I get for nearby stations:

Torrey, Utah (84775) Conditions & Forecast Weather Underground - Mozilla Firef_2011-08-31_17-22-17.png

KUTCAPIT2 (Capitol Reef Field Station) isn't one of those.

Yes I did get the same view (in Dutch) and realised later it wans't the same.

I'm getting closer. The station is listed, but not in a normal way:

Sandy Ranch, UT, which is identified as the nearest town, is a long-defunct dude ranch. Didn't even rise up to the level of ghost town. Go figure. It also works if you search on Boulder, UT. A search on "Capitol Reef" does not show the station.

I'll email them and see if someone can apply a little sense to the computer.
