• 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.

Is there a weather station that i could get for my home that if i am gone could access it from anywhere while im away from home? like say on the go?
 
Yes, you'll find plenty of options for putting the info on the website. Just about any weather station has software that uploads the data to a website, so it might be better just to find a wx station of interest and then find the software instead of going about it in reverse.
 
I recommend the Oregon Scientific WMR-968 and the WeatherHub (Internet connected mini-server) for folks in that price range. In particular these two..

http://www.ambientweather.com/wmorscwiprwe.html ($189)

http://www.ambientweather.com/weambnslu2.html ($229)

That's the station I run at home and it has worked just fine for 5+ years. It's not the best, but you can't get the best for $400 :)

The WeatherHub I added a few months ago to replace my aging laptop that was doing nothing but running Virtual Weather Server. I _LOVE_ the WeatherHub. Combine it with the CWOP iPhone app and I can check the weather at my house from anywhere without even going to a website.

I too shop with AmbientWeather and have had nothing but good experiences.

Very good (that's just what I bought for my EM agency, with the WeatherHub instead of their IP server) but the price point goes up.
