I really am having a hard time coming to grips with this. I understand your definition of glatest; but *glatest would provide near-real-time gust information if min_interval is made short*? I don't see that a 10 min gust calculated now or a 30 second gust calculated now are any more or less 'near-real time'. One uses a smaller window than the other but they are both just as near real time as each other. If decreasing min_interval makes glatest 'more near real-time' does reducing it to 0 may it as real time as it gets? On one hand you seem be advocating pumping out wind data as fast as you can (which implies min_interval == 0) but on the other hand you want max(windSpeed) over min_interval. On a Vantage, and I suspect most all of the other stations, glatest=wlatest for min_interval <= loop period. Nothwithstanding, I will look at doing adding it.All of the data is being cached so it should be easy enough to do. I realize SteelSeries Weather Gauges enhancement is beyond the scope of > rtgd.
