I just got my first custom web page set up, and ran into a problem when the temp dropped below 20C.
Yesterday afternoon, I was getting reasonable output, such as:
Temperature:
75.9

To add to the mystery, it now says 63F, feels like 63F. i wonder if the METAR wind data got corrupted in the previous report…
Hey Brian,
He’s right… something isn’t right with “Feels like” for wind chill.
This morning it’s 59F with 0mph winds… and Feels like says 15F
Now that I think about it more… 15C is 59F
Hey Brian… I think Wind Chill is showing in C instead of F.
uploading 10.17t to fix that

Thanks Brian!
bu is it only an issue with light winds?
the fix might stuff it up when the wind is strong enough to make the windchill work
heainding away for 4 days now, starting now!

It hasn’t been cold enough here yet to tell… sorry.
I’m keeping an eye on it.
Temp: 53 F
Feels Like: 128 F !

Bump
Brian, the wind chill custom tag is wacky and I think that is screwing up the feelslike tag.
Right now it is saying 4F wind chill outside when it’s 39F.
And a half hour later… wind chill is back to 39F!
This morning…
Temp is 45F
Feels like 0F
Wind is .2 mph from the N
Main display of WD says the wind chill should be 45F
Now wind is 2.2 mph and feels like says 2F
Am using (I think) the latest version of 10.17v
Using 10.17w
Still seeing both feelslike and windchill tags showing up incorrectly.
Not sure what the reason is… for 5 minutes, both will show fine… then both will jump down to a low number… then back up… then down… etc.
Appears to display fine in WD.
i guess i better run some real world testing
Thanks Brian…
This morning it’s 47F with 2.4 MPH winds.
Wind Chill - 8.6F
Feels like - 2F
good news
i have fixed this now
(as I added it to the bottom of my web page, and i too had a dumb reading)
uploading a fix now ( a new 10.17y)
see:
(i have it ticked to use custom web tags in my web page in the webpage/web files setup, and so i just simply added some custom tags to the datahtm3.txt file…quite neat that…means you can add custom tags to the default wd web page easily
a new 10.17y is ready now to fix this error
Uh oh… everything’s been pretty smooth the past couple of days (but also warmer).
This morning:
55F with .2MPH winds
Custom tags show…
currenttemp = 55
heatindex = 55
feelslike = 55
windchill = 12.7
WD is showing windchill of 55F
ah, so the windchill tag is a problem if the wind is less than 4mph (i.e it then uses the actual temperature)
i will investigate/fix
hi
uploading 10.18 now
should fix the windchill custom tag 8)
