Moving weather station location

[Jo Hunter]

Morning all,

We just moved house. Before I set up my weather station again, can anyone please advise me on the etiquette for moving locations, especially when feeding data to online maps? I guess I can do what I like as far as weewx is concerned, although I was going to start a new database for that. Should I sign up as a fresh new user for things like PWSweather or CWOP, or just use my existing ID? I am concerned that if they keep a lot of historical data then it won’t be consistent between the two locations.

Thanks,
Jo

I would create a new station ID as it is a new location. At least with PWSweather you can have more than one station (that is: location) in your account. You will see the "inactive" label for your old station location after some time.
