The first (top) weather link on your right is now in a bare bones format.
WHY?
I recorded calibrated maximum and minimum temperatures using a Comp-u-temp device. With a push of a button I saw the previous seven days of max or min temperatures and the time they occurred on each day. I could be away from home for five or six days and still have a complete history of temperatures. The problem was the device( the processor) would fry easily with lightning discharges. In 1999, 2008, 2010 and now in August 2015 that happened. It was good business for Comp-u-temp but becoming expensive.
The temperatures now on my weather blog will be a mix of National Weather Service values recorded at the Portland jetport and my best estimate using a single day battery powered sensor.
The change will also save me more than fifteen minutes each week. I will load only one file per week, not four.
Most of the old data back to 2007 is still available. Now you must back into it using previous page.
