I moved my weather station web site from a shared domain to its own dedicated domain. Now it seems to update, but then files never get updated.I have attached the ftp and debug logs which I had cleared out before the last attempt to force a web update. What a m I missing here. It seems good to me, but then the webpage shows the last update as "Conditions at local time 13:50 on 24 March 2013" and the last attempt was about 15:43 hours (MST).
What am I missing?

Do you have a Cumulus website?

Thanks to heart to heart exchange also with my ISP, who happens to be a friend of mine, I think the problem has been resolved. When taking to webpage off the shared domain and putting onto its own domain, I went to a different level of usage. What I am using for the weather page is now considered a personal domain and the FTP access changed. There is only one FTP account allowed and it has a hard coded FTP access, including the path, which I was totally unaccustomed to.
I guess this is something even to most up-to-date IT person could initially overlook. I may have done computer tech support for years, but I have been out of the loop since I retired four years ago.
I would consider my posting just a tad early. If I had waited a little longer, my ISP and I would have resolved the issue, but I didn't expect him to call me on a totally unrelated problem on another domain I am webmaster of. Oh yes, that problem he still can't get corrected. It has us all baffled.

One off-topic question, do you have calibration settings in the humidity or it actually goes below 10%?

Oh yes, last year on several occasions it got down to 1%. This is the desert where if you get 12" of precipitation in a year, we are ecstatic! The humidity has been well below 10% for the past week according to the official Weather Service location at the airport. That is one reason you will see such a big spread between the low and the high temperatures.
In the summer during the monsoon season (July through September) things a much different. Humidity readings of almost 100% then are common, which is miserable when the temperature is around 100.
