Uploading Wind Gust and Rain to Weather Underground

[jlwoodard]

Hi all,
Is there a special trick to uploading wind gust and rain data to Weather Underground? I can't figure out a way to associate wind0 with a "wind gust".

Currently, wind0 is associated with wind, and rain0 is associated with rain. However, when I look at my precipitation totals on Weather Underground for my personal weather station since I activated my station, they are 0 even though the console records measurable precipitation when it rains.

I also don't see a way to show wind gusts on weather underground.

Not sure if it is related but under System Info, the Weather Data Recomputation seems to be perpetually listed as "waiting". Even when I try to click on Recompute Aggregated Weather Data under the Maintenance tab, it doesn't seem to help.

I'm using the Davis Weather Vantage Pro II and Meteohub 4.5i. Any thoughts/help will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

John

Wunderground somtimes seems to have a problem with the rainfall rates for me, but your total rainfalls and wind gusts should be reported automatically without any special tricks.

I suspect that this has something to do with your pending recomputation problem.

When a problem like this crops up, I always check for corrupted data in the past or I would suspect a failed/corrupted USB thumb drive.

Has your Meteohub just been set up recently? Have the rainfall amounts and wind gusts ever been reported to WU?

Thanks so much for your reply--I've had my Meteohub for quite some time. I previously used it with an Oregon Scientific WMR-968, but about 2 months ago, I replaced the OS station with the Davis Vantage Pro 2. I set up the new Davis station and deleted the OS station. I do see listings for "High" wind speed and "Average" wind speed, but 0 for gust. The rainfall also has never apparently been uploaded to Wunderground, as the totals are all 0. I wonder if some of the OS data was left and is causing some of the problems.
