Webcam/IP Camera

We've had reported problems about the webcam page not working well in all browsers.
The image is called in an iFrame and after some adjustments it seems to be working well from my testing and observations.

IP Camera....Webcam

if you have problems viewing the live stream, please let me know. It would be helpful if you could tell me what operating system you are using and what browser.

Thanks

CWOP Data Quality Report Page Added

CWOP Data Quality Page

The Citizen Weather Observer Program (CWOP) is a private-public partnership with the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration. Its three main goals: 1) to collect weather data contributed by citizens; 2) to make these data available for weather services; and 3) to provide feedback to the data contributors so that they have the tools to check and improve their data quality.

We've added this page to monitor and show the Belcak Weather Station reported data accuracy and quality.

The link can be found under the Navigation list - Tools/Info - Data Quality

Advisories update

Some of you may have noticed the Advisories Tab has not been updating since March 15.
NOAA had changed the feed url for weather alerts.

This morning I had a chance to track down the new info and update the script. The alert summaries seem to be current and all is back in order.

The real test will come when alerts are posted. Let me know if things seem not to be working.

Thanks

Webcam Moved Outside

Well it's taken a while but I finally relocated the wx webcam to a spot on the post that supports my Davis Weather Station.

There's still work to do in setting up all of the presets but you can try many of the features at Belcak Weather Station or go directly to IPcamera .

As usual, I'm open to comments or suggestions.

Thanks

New Webcam

This week I upgraded the web cam to a new Panasonic BB-HCM735A IP Network Camera. The camera has PTZ and zoom capability. Shortly I hope to be able to add that feature to the web page and let the viewer control the camera. The camera looks to the southeast onto Swan Creek and in the morning it works hard to deal with the sun and reflection off the water.

This time of year we have lots of geese who make Swan Creek there home. Enjoy the view and let me know how it works for you!
