This website is automatically updated in real time (about every 2.5 seconds) with weather observations from an Accurite Bridge and 5 in 1 weather station that I had to hack together because after only a year Accurite discontinued support. The station is located in Midhurst, Ontario. Weather data is received by the 5 in 1 station and weewx connects to an Accurite Bridge to get archive data and the live website feeds. I also have two Accurite tower sensors that connect to the bridge The weather station provides the following readings:
- Temperature
- Humidity
- Wind speed
- Wind direction
- Rainfall
- my Garage temp and humidity
- my basement temp and humidity
The rest of the observations on this website are done via software calculations and quality control checks to make sure the data is valid.
All weather observations are also posted to the following websites:
- Midhurst on Weather Cloud
- IONTARIO1146 on Weather Underground
- Midhurst on PWS Weather
Software used:
- weewx weather station software
- HighCharts for the various charts on the website
- The Belchertown skin theme built for weewx
- MQTT as the broker for instant data transfer from weather station to website
