Hi,
A few days ago I started sending APRS data from my weather station. I noticed that the negative data calculated for the "dew point" in the temperature graph isn't displayed (as shown in the image below). I checked another nearby station and the result is the same...

Hi,

aprs.fi was using an algorithm for estimation of dew point which wasn't

one now, and dew point for freezing temperatures is now shown.
