WeatherCat data file ***If you modify this file, be sure to delete the relevent. The X_WeatherCatData.cat file is a plain text file which contains the following information, described in a header in each file. WeatherCat puts 12 months of data into a directory with the name of the year. You will note that there is no information in the file name to indicate the year. This file is called X_WeatherCatData.cat where X is the month.

Using these 4 files we can either retrieve or calculate the information that goes into a WeatherCat log file. The MYYYYextralog.csv file is a Comma Separated Variable file and contains the following information - day, month, year, hour, minute, 9 temperature readings numbered 1 to 9, 9 humidity readings numbered 1 to 9. The MYYYYvantagelog.txt file is a plain text file and contains the following information ? day, month, year, hour, minute, solar radiation, UV, daily ET, soil moisture, soil temperature The MYYYYindoorlog.txt is a plain text file and contains the following information - day, month, year, hour, minute, indoor temperature, indoor humidity. The Weather Display MYYYYlg.txt file is a plain text file and contains the following information - day, month, year, hour, minute, temperature, humidity, dew point, barometer, wind speed, gust speed, wind direction, rain last minute, daily rain, monthly rain, yearly rain, heat index. It?s long and boring unless you are a programming geek! If you email me at I will tell you how do this.ĭon?t? read beyond here unless you really care about the details of how this is done. You need to upload the files to my Dropbox account. The others are not required but if you have them I would like them. M is the month (from 1 to 12), YYYY is the year so, for example, files for April 2011 would begin with 42011. Right now, I need the following files for any ONE MONTH I now need some examples of other people?s Weather Display files to proceed with further testing. I will probably do that Thursday or Friday. I still have to do the user interface so that people can input the locations of their Weather Display files and the location where they want their converted files to be stored. I have written to asking if there is any way to work around this. That is, it stops when there are missing months. This should not be a problem for anyone who has continuous files going up to the time they switched over. It will not create data back farther than that even if the X_WeatherCatData.cat files exist.

WeatherCat will create X_ files only back to August 2015. When I discard the months from July 2013 to July 2015 it creates a problem. Essentially I have had to discard the data downloaded from Weather Underground. For example, it shows the maximum rain day is Mawith 345.4 mm of rain. When I process this data I get some very weird results. However, this data does not have exactly the same format as regular Weather Display files. As I have done that, I downloaded the data.
Import weathercat data into weather display download#
Weather Display has an option to download data from Weather Underground if you have been uploading data to that site. I lost data from July 2013 to July of 2015 because of a backup failure. One thing that caused a number of problems. I fixed this by manually editing the Weather Display file. The effect of this was to report the minimum pressure at my station was 0.0 mb. In another case 3 observations of Pressure were wrong in a three minute (observation) period. I manually removed the Nulls but will fix the program to automatically remove them before they are processed. In one case there were a number of Nulls in the Weather Display files (not many, three instances in two files out of a total of 107 files). Some of the data in my Weather Display files was bad.
