About Ofallon, MO Weather
Ofallon Weather was launched in March of 2005.
The weather station that feeds the site is a Davis Wireless Vantage Pro, purchased in March of 2003.
The location of this station is in the Royal Oaks subdivision, this is in the very NW corner of Ofallon.
The initial purpose was for me to provide family, friends and neighbors with weather updates from my station.
The site was one page which closely resembled the Current Weather page of today, this page has since been modified.
It has grown from receiving 3-6 visitors a day during the first few months, currently the site receives 30-60 visitors a day average.
During severe weather, the number of unique visitors exceeds 100 each day, with some days over 200!
This traffic translates to over 60,000 page hits a month.
Almost all updates are done at regular intervals with various software.
I do manually create links on the archive page at the beginning of each month, along with creating the reports and uploading them.
The station's data is shared to many outlets.
My favorite is the Citizens Weather Observer, or CWOP.
The station can be seen here, CWOP Ofallon Weather
I have received questions about the station's reading accuracy in the past.
The CWOP provides analysis of station data, output can be requested over different time periods and can be seen here
