TWINPEAKSWEATHER.COM
THE TWINPEAKSWEATHER.COM WEATHER WEBSITE ONCE SEEN ON THIS PAGE IS
NOT AVALIABLE.
SPECIAL UPDATE....10-7-10
ONLY ONE LAPTOP COMPUTER NEEDED.
Our
large desktop computers energy requirements were just getting to the
point where they were not cost effective to run 24 hours a day.
I hope to return the website
before winter sets in using laptop computers to collect data from
the weather equipment and run the webcams.
Our older analog webcams
will require a video server before we can interface them to a laptop
computer system. But I am working to solve the webcam issue by using
a few newer IP based internet cameras.
While the website is down
I will take the extra time to install a new weather station, and make
repairs to some of the webcams.
You may remember
a few months ago we were looking for used laptop computers and I put
out a request here on the website for the donation of older laptop
computers. We had 3 laptops donated and out of the three only one
will be able to be used to run the website and it's weather station.
This computer needs some minor repair so this will also delay the
return of the weather website.
I still
need a few backup laptop computers incase of a computer crash. When
you run computers 24 hours a day, believe me they don't last as long
as one might think.
I hope
to get the one laptop I have up and running in a few weeks, but I
have no current timeline as to when the website will return to this
page......
I
will post updates at the top of this page as they are avaliable.
I Wish To Thank
Susan M. Redondo Beach, California.
Tom and Diane S. Twin Peaks,
California.
Kevin C. Twin Peaks, California.
Brian T. Boulder, Colorado.
For their donation of laptop
computers.
