noaa reports path

Just setting up my noaa reports to ftp. I'm a little confused after reading exactly what the path should be. Is it
http://mysite.com/reports ?
or
xx.xx.xx.x/reports
or just
/reports
Also is there any way to force an upload rather than wait until midnight?

Normally it will be whatever you have configured for 'Directory' in the Web Site setting on the internet config screen, with "/reports" added to the end.
There's no way to force an update; you could get Cumulus to generate the reports, save them, and then manually upload them.

Mine is /public_html/NOAA-reports It looks like you may be able to choose the name of the folder yourself.
The only way to upload them before midnight would be to create and manually upload them. Cumulus will then take over the process just after midnight each day for the current month / year.

Great thanks. that's what I've done (using my directory structure). We'll see what happens over night!

I could be wrong but I think only the current month / year reports will be uploaded by Cumulus. You need to manually upload the rest.

Incidentally, have you added monthly average temperatures in your NOAA setup? I find they are probably the most useful aspect of the reports.

Thank you, Ray. Uploading fine now and I added the monthly averages.
