There is a CWOP personal weather station a few houses down the street from me that I am leaning towards using vs an official weather station 6 miles away. This is the CWOP weather station. http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/search?site=D4088
When I look at this, I don’t see anything reporting precipitation or anything forecasting precipitation. Unless I just don’t know how to read the page. How would using this CWOP PWS work to prevent my Rachio from watering the lawn in case of past or future rain?
Also, where does Rachio pull the rain forecasts from if using the official weather stations? I don’t see forecasts for the official weather station either. http://w1.weather.gov/obhistory/KTKI.html
If you have not chosen a station, we will use the closest national weather station that has precipitation data (some stations do not report precipitation data).
Franz,
Thanks for pinpointing the FindU link and I now see the forecast office link under registered location as well. I was looking at the graphs below and overlooked those.
