  1. Hi there Harry! Good to see you posting climate summaries again. I am running behind as usual, as I just posted my May summary only a few days ago. You asked for comments about your comparison between your Netatmo station and the data from Aberporth. Well a comparison of the data sets really can’t be made because you have two very different data sets posted. Aberporth has averages of daily highs and lows, your Netatmo station shows monthly extremes. You should compile the same sort of statistic for either your station or for Aberporth. That would make what is called “apples to apples comparisons, not apples to oranges”.

    What sort of parameters can you collect with the netatmo station? I have seen it before, and I know it collects other types of data. You should publish the other data it collects in your summaries. It would be most interesting for all to see. Does it accurately collect rainfall data? Don’t you have a different gauge for measuring your rainfall? Precipitation makes for the most interesting comparisons of nearby stations. I hope you read my May summary recently, I have all kinds of climatic variables reported on/published for the month.

    Thanks again for posting data for your station there in Llanrhystud

  2. Although the station collects data all the time, when you try and get it out it doesn’t come out as I was hoping. Instead of producing data where it shows the highest temperature and lowest temperature during any 24 hour period, it rather unhelpfully dumps the data in 15 minute intervals and does not seem to have a 24 hour max min option. If you would like, you are more than welcome to download the data yourself from April 1st to June 30th to see if you have any better luck than I seem to be having in getting daily maxes and mins.

    The rain guage is a lot simpler to understand. The daily measurements are divided by hours, weekly into six hour chunks, the monthly into daily chunks, and the yearly by week, but as I didn’t get the rain guage until June 21st, I will start covering rainfall from this month on (which is a shame as the week before we had enough rain in a week to complete a monthly tally!)
