PWS Monitor

I built a weather station from scratch using a cm5 and various sensor boards. I needed a way to get my station to be visible where ever. Weather underground made sense but the app interface was un desirable and I didn’t want to dev my own app and all that comes with an app dev account. I found this app, and honestly it’s been perfect. When I saw the dev made improvements I wanted to support. This app is great, and does exactly what I need without having to do backend or web server work and maintenance. I’m grateful to have it and happy to pay to share my gratitude. Also the app design and layout is so optimized.

It’s great and I can get to my station data from anywhere. An old neighborhood name that was assigned by Weather Underground has never made any sense, it’s miles away, an old name which has never been associated with my historic location; my home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been here for 100 years, so I have no idea how some other place miles away got assigned to it in the first place by WU. It will forever drive me insane until it gets removed; it would be great in a future PWS update if I could just choose to not show it. PWS Monitor did provide a recent update which allowed me to change the main “nickname” at the top of my station. Thank you PWS for letting me know it was Weather Underground who assigned the incorrect name!

Matt, I love having this app and am so grateful for all your work in making it available to everyone. I consult it several times a day, sometimes several times an hour because our weather here in the Midwest is so changeable. I consult at least five PWSs in our area because weather even 10 miles away can be so different and can forewarn us of what's coming at us. I just downloaded the latest update and couldn't figure out why I now have decimal points. Kept looking in settings for an option to not use them but not finding one. Finally I went to Version History on app store page and saw that this was a W-Ground data change that some users were glad to have back. Would it be possible to have an on/off decimal option? Not having decimals makes it much cleaner and is easier to quickly interpret the data at a glance. Decimals just get in the way when I only want to make a quick station-to-station comparison. Without meaning to sound harsh, having decimals seems to be an exercise in absurdity (which I do often find humorous) since, for example, I'm fairly sure no one can tell the difference between 28.8 degrees F and 29. Nor between a 1.1 mph wind gust and a 1 mph. (These are both current local readings.)I realize that you get this data "as is" but just wondered whether this option would be possible since there are user-specified options for units, etc. BTW, when I tried to access the Info page in the app, pressing the "i" now makes the app crash.Thanks again for all your hard work and generosity.
