Secret weather stations? :)
Posted: Thu 09/12/2004 11:34
I've been looking and found various sations I didn't know were there. Generally most of them seem to be in working order, do you guy's know of other secret weather stations out there? Of course they're not that secret as I found them but would be good to know if you guy's know of any others?
For e.g. When TV ONE does one of their claims about how the highest temp was recorded in Culverdon or Darfield etc, where do they get that info. And is it one the net? Maybe for Darfield they get it from the station that I mention below?
Here's a few I've found:
Darfield weather station: http://weather.selwyn.govt.nz/DRF/
Hamner weather station: http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstat ... =ICANTERB4
For the Hamner one you can actually go to here which is from a Hamner Horses website: http://hanmerhorses.dyndns.info:1551/weather.html
Arthurs Pass weather station: http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstat ... =ICANTERB3
There's also a link on the page which shows where the data comes from. I think I've actualy seen this station before on the web.
Lincoln Library weather station: http://weather.selwyn.govt.nz/LCN/index.php
Leeston weather Station: http://weather.selwyn.govt.nz/LSN/
Cheviot weather station: http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstat ... =ICANTERB3
Above comes from: http://www.demaroussem.net.nz/
So what others are out there? Above stuff is great, especially the Hamner and Darfield stations as people may know I keep wondering what the inland temp and dewpoint is like.
It would be good if there were perhaps a west coast one. You can go into wunderground.com and type in NZHK to get Hokitika and there's another for Farewell Spit, Westport and Hast but no history. Surely these are coming from a website somewhere. Which ones?
Any other sites out there anyone know's of in the Canterbury region?
