Look for sleet and freezing rain tonight. In fact there is some falling in Mount Crawford right now. Stay safe and stay off the roads.

The National Weather Service has also issued a Flood Watch as well. All of these conditions are going to make for an interesting night.

It looks like the later part of this week, it’s going to get colder. Winter is here. Make sure you take care of your pets, and that your home heating system is operating efficiently. It is also time to get out those thick coats, gloves, and hats.

Station/Site Maintenance/Winter Prep

Filed under: Site Updates & Suggestions, Weather Conditions — mountcrawfordweather admin @ 2:38 pm

Pretty Day here in western Virginia. Most likely the last time we will have warm enough weather to be able to disassemble the rain gauge. My paint job on my rain gauge mod did not fair well due to the sun’s ultraviolet rays over the summer. So I took it down this morning, sanded and cleaned up the outside surface of the funnel real good. I am currently waiting for the adhesive on it to dry, so that I can reapply some plastic compatible paint to it. Hopefully the paint will dry enough that I can get it back on the stand before dark comes this evening.

I also took the time to clean off the Solar panels, evict spiders and their egg sacs. The battery on the inside temp/baro/hygro was also showing low, so replaced that.

will soon be ready for the hard task of reporting this years winter conditions. Please note, that the site may be down a few times today, as I still have some maintenance things to do.

Webcam Time Lapse / Spam

Filed under: Site Updates & Suggestions — mountcrawfordweather admin @ 8:44 am

Well it appears that I got the webcam time lapse fixed again.

Now it appears I am getting alot of Russian spam to this site, and email as well. Luckily I have measures in place that it never gets through to the site and you my users.

WebCam Time Lapse down

Filed under: Site Updates & Suggestions — mountcrawfordweather admin @ 12:16 pm

I am having issues with the webcam time lapse videos, so at this time they are not being updated. I am working on the issue with others, but I have not still found the problem yet, to even begin to start to fix it.

Hold on to your hats.

Filed under: Weather Conditions — mountcrawfordweather admin @ 11:01 am

The forecast for today includes a Wind Advisory in effect. Be sure to tie down outdoor items, and hold onto your hat. I wonder if we will be able to break our all time wind speed high? http://www.mountcrawfordweather.org/sumalltime.html
