• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

What programs do you guys use to log weather station data (and possibly upload it to http://www.wunderground.com)? The reason I ask, is the software I am currently using "Weather Display" keeps spiking my wind data. It will be working fine, then all of a sudden I see a wind gust >70MPH... Looking at my actual weather station shows no values even close to that, so this software is some how making up numbers... What's the deal?

BTW, my weather station is a LaCrosse 2310 (I believe).

Here is the data that is plotting, everything but the >60MPH entries are correct: http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation...sp?ID=KMIROCHE2
 
This doesn't really help you, but I am using Weatherlink for my Davis Vantage Pro. Its the software that came with the data logger. I played around with some of those after market programs, but they were so messy. Too many options and too many crashes.

The Weatherlink software supports uploads to Weather Underground with one small software download. Here's my station:

I wish there was some way to edit the data after it is sent to Weather Underground. It would be helpful to fix your wind spikes. I'd like it to adjust my precip data in the winter when it snows and I have to use my manual rain bucket.
 
I have used VWS since ver 2. I never any problems with it. I serves my web site,weather underground and aprs slick as a ribbon. :D
