(near-real-time) wind and temperature information


            

IF the data here 'seems' out of date, please e-mail to (volunteer):  bill@vikingasia.org

Notes: "High" (in the Wind Speed graphic) is the highest wind speed reading since midnight.   The date-time-stamp at the bottom of each graphic is the date-time when that particular data point was captured.  Wind data is captured and uploaded to this web-site every 5 minutes - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

"Validity of wind-data:"  Data should be quite valid from 'about' NW through N and NE to 'about' SE; from 'about' SE to 'about' SW - you might want to add 4-8 knots to get wind-speed at the middle of the (Indian) River and/or middle of the (ICW) channel.   From 'about' SW to 'about' NW, validity is going to be low, and we have little data on this direction at this point in time (near Christmas, 2006)...  This data-validity information is a result of where the sensor is mounted on the dock and the type(s) of obstacles (buildings / trees, etc.) in the way of the wind-sensors.

Your web-browser access to this information has been provided by cooperative work  between USSCMC (past) manager Peter Strong and volunteer Bill Schell.    Current manager is Alan Jenkinson.  Access to this data is NOT GUARANTEED and may be taken away at any time without any notice.

There is another web-page available for further-weather-info at USSCMC's facility in Jensen Beach, Florida.

Detailed text-based-notes about data collection, calculated values and file-transfers can be found in a separate file, here.
