KLB School Weather Station: Status


KLB School weather station index pageCurrent weather conditions at he the KLB School weather stationHelp and Glossary page


  • 02/03/09 - A new computer has now been installed and the weather station reactivated.
  • 02/09/08 - The existing computer has not had the specification needed to run on the upgraded network so the weather station will be inactive until early 2009.
  • 01/05/08 - Access problems getting onto the school roof mean the weather station is unlikely to be active until mid-June 2008.
  • 24/12/07 - The link seems to be working occasionally - during daylight hours.  There may be an issue with the battery not holding charge or not recharging enough from the solar cell.
  • 12/12/07 - The wireless link between the weather station and the computer seems to have failed so no readings can be collected.  The weather station will be checked as soon as it is possible to get access to the roof but this is unlikely to happen until early 2008.
  • 1/09/07 - The pressure sensor seems to have failed over the summer.  Unlikely to be fixed in the short term due to costs.  The graphics will be left on for the time being.
  • 22/02/07 - Ongoing issues with our new proxy server blocking updates should be solved this week.
  • 16/02/07 - The data logger power supply was accidentally unplugged and this was not noticed until the battery ran flat so unfortunately a week or so of data was lost over half term.
  • 26/01/07 - Weather station software moved to a newer PC to address speed and clock issues. Movie feature removed.  Just noticed the units have switched to imperial! To be fixed on Monday!
  • 8/12/06 - All pages now formatted to match the remainder of the website. Movie link removed for the time being.
  • 2/9/06 - The webcam movie is not available at the moment - service will be resumed or the page removed as soon as possible.
  • 12/5/06 - Apologies to all those who have been trying to access the site over the last few weeks, our ISP decided to move servers without warning and completely messed it up so we have been unable to update anything since the 20th of April.  Everything now seems to be working and no data was actually lost thanks to the data logger.  Thanks for everyone's  patience, especially on the Wotton Discussion Board!
  • 22/9/05 - UPS installed.
  • 15/8/05 - Weather station PC restarted - no data lost from the data logger.  Uninterruptible  power supply (UPS) to be purchased to try and avoid further loss of service.
  • 28/7/05 - Weather station PC turned off again, building work interrupting the power supply.  The weather station will be offline until it is restarted.  Apologies to all those using this service.
  • 25/7/05 - Weather station PC restarted.  Data-logger batteries ran flat while the power was off so 2 days of data lost.
  • 22/7/05 - Weather station PC turned off by mistake (end of term).  It will be restarted on Monday 25th.
