I mistyped. It's AmbientWeather.com<http://ambientweather.com>. Here’s the Gibraltar Peak weather station link if anyone is interested:

Something is not mapping correctly from our weather station to the Ambient data collection, so it looks like we have many feet of rain :) But it’s wind and temperature we’re most concerned with, so I haven’t put any time into sorting out the decimal point in the rain gauge, or whatever is the cause of crazy rain data. -mel On Apr 18, 2019, at 9:16 AM, Mel Beckman <m...@beckman.org<mailto:m...@beckman.org>> wrote: When IBM purchased TWC, IBM summarily cancelled our heretofore free weather station monitoring through Wunderground.com<http://wunderground.com/>. Instead IBM offered to “sell” us our own remote data center weather stations information back to us at an exorbitant price. No thank you. We switched everything to Ambient.com<http://ambient.com/>. The idea of Wunderground.com<http://wunderground.com/> was free public collection and sharing of useful weather data to vastly increase the density of coverage over commercial services. It’s a pity IBM, who otherwise supports open source through it’s vast Linux contributions, couldn’t see that. During the Santa Barbara fires last year, our weather station on Gibraltar Peak was the one source firefighting helicopter pilots had to obtain ridge wind speeds, which was critical to their operation. Neither the NWS nor TWC or IBM is willing to invest in critical public information infrastructure. I’m a capitalist, but I don’t believe destroying the good works of others is ultimately profitable. -mel On Apr 18, 2019, at 8:50 AM, Fred Baker <fredbaker.i...@gmail.com<mailto:fredbaker.i...@gmail.com>> wrote: According to this, Weather Underground was purchased by the Weather Channel and firmed “The Weather Company”, and that was in turn purchased by IBM last year. https://www.wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/weather-underground-bought-by-ibm.html Sent using a machine that autocorrects in interesting ways...
