| Anemometer Issues | |||||||||
| ~ Lost readings from my anemometer twice during the month although it has come back on occasions for short periods. | |||||||||
| Thus this month only contains 15 days worth of data for wind. | |||||||||
| Recent Additions to Statistics List | |||||||||
| ~ I Created a 'Spurious Rainfall Data' file for logging rogue tips from my rain gauge that occur after 9am when no rain is | |||||||||
| or has fallen. Tips before 9am when no rain has fallen would be attributed to dew, this means that the precipitation | |||||||||
| amount is added to rainfall totals but it would not be recorded as a rain day. | |||||||||
| ~ Created a batch file for duplicating files & placing the copy in a separate location with the time & date the backup | |||||||||
| took place added to the end of the file name. This is used in conjunction with 'Windows Scheduler' to have valuable | |||||||||
| files backed up at regular intervals. Many thanks to those from the 'Weatherzone Forums' for their help with this one! | |||||||||
