| Steve Storm chaser, weather station manager, and web server administrator 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. 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 template that was included and have watched this entire weather website's template grow to 1,740 lines of HTML as of December 2024.  Thank You Elwood Downey, WB0OEW for your creation of the astronomical position calculations used in the Heavenly Bodies section of this website. Donating your libastro C calculation library for use in PyEphem for linux was a very gracious thing to do. Many people are grateful for your generosity and hard work on that project and so many others.
This is a low cost, amateur run, home weather station. Never make any safety related decisions based solely on any weather or any other data from w5sdc.net. Links are provided for both the local NWS office and Hurricane Center for authoritative information during severe weather events. Local NOAA Weather Radio is available 24/7 on 162.400 Mhz in the Austin metro for up to the minute alerts and warnings during severe weather outbreaks. |
