Professional Weather Station
- Local weather station equipment is La Crosse WS-3610 Professional Weather Station with Weather Underground HeavyWeather Uploader (WUHU), HeavyWeather Publisher and Virtual Weather Software
- All weather related data and images update every 10 minutes
- Outdoor sensors (rain, wind, temperature and humidity) located on "Mother-In-Law" Room
- Having problems with your La Crosse WS-3610 using HeavyWeatherPro? So did I! I have developed a detailed, easy to follow procedure that allows you to substitute WUHU (it's Freeware) for the HeavyWeatherPro/Beta Software. If you have experienced these type of problems, you can download this procedure and give it a try (it sure worked for me).

Lightning Detection Equipment
- Lightning Equipment is Boltek PCI StormTracker Lightning Detector with Astrogenic Systems NexStorm Software (uploads every minute) and GlobalSat BU-353 Water-Proof USB GPS Receiver.
- If the following Java Window does not display the data (your system does not support java), then click Lightning Image to display a jpg image of the lightning activity (uploads every 2 minutes). This image is set to autorange from 750 miles to 16 miles. So if there is lightning close in - this image will show more detail. Great for the local residence and those far away!
