Weather Station

Post by American Pie »

Anyone know whats has happened to the link to the CVO Weather Station? - Thought it was great to be able to check the current weather & temperature in CVO. When you now click on the link to the WS it just shows a direct link to the station that is not working.

they should paint the eyesore !

at least make it look like a lighthouse or something.. even white with blue stripes, like a water tower would be ok, or a rock type colour to help it blend in -
anything but that grey concrete monstrosity...

The weather station is on the school roof I think you are mixing it up with the radio beacon.

At least now you have three possible solutions as to what it is. Apart from an eyesore. 8)
