| Steve Storm chaser, weather station technician, and linux internet domain admin This station's first weather page went live on the internet in January of 2004. Since then, home weather stations have become much more reliable, affordable, and now provide much more data than just basic temperature, wind, and rain measurements.
   Big thanks to Tom Keffer for writing the weeWX weather station engine and also to Matthew Wall and Gary Roderick for their invaluable contributions to weeWX, its drivers, and its extensions. Get the whole saga of weeWX and the software at the link above. weeWX is relatively easy to configure and use even for those like me with limited programming experience. On June 26, 2017, I started with the basic HTML template that was included with weeWX and have watched this entire weather website's template grow to 2,041 lines of HTML over the last eight years. Elwood Downey RIP since Jan 29, 2026  The astronomical position calculations used in the Heavenly Bodies section of this website were written by Mr. Downey. The last time that I heard from Elwood was in April of 2024 when we exchanged photos of the full solor eclipse on April 8th. Both his friendly attitude and his ingenious abilities will be sorely missed.
