WEATHER53 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 It's gone way past just being slow it mostly stalls and does not load especially considering the multiply choices one has to make to even get to midatlantic section and thus the opportunities for it to hang up who owns this now? who maintains and runs this? who decides and then implements upgrades which are actually poorly functioning downgrades? Who appeals for money but decides to use techs who simply are not up to the job of running this site smoothly ? plain truth is no internet site acts up like this and it is happening when a whopping total of 12 people are on so its not overload, it's under commitment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 If you're having problems with the site you should post over in the Forum Help subforum. They are likely still working out the kinks from the overhaul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnis Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I saw it mentioned that some bugs were being worked out with the upgrade, but I have experienced no issues with the site both on my Mac running Safari, or my iPhone. I have also loaded the site with no problems using chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I want to be more diplomatic about it then tenman but I am also frustrated since the upgrade. The site worked great for me before. Fast and easy to use, especially on mobile. The new format seems too busy and slow. Everything seems sluggish including just typing compared to before. I am using my iPhone. Maybe it's a mobile thing I have not tried it from a computer it it worked great on my phone befire and now it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 The old version for the past few months was absolutely horrible for me. Often was not able to load pages at all - sometimes it would just take a while on initial load - it varied. This problems I am currently having are similar but more just slow load times. I am not experiencing slow typing, however. It mostly seems like the issues from before are lingering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I've been having all the problems listed above, too. I don't recall any such issues before the upgrade. It is literally now 50 / 50 if I can get the site to load at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Tenman, I think the RTD on my weather station is malfunctioning. Been reading like 115 for a high everyday for a month now. Strangely it reads accurately at night though. Wanna help me troubleshoot it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that there is a forum dedicated to Board help and updates. Obviously the switch didn't go smoothly, but that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent an email in and got the ball rolling, they pulled it offline and replaced the malfunctioning equipment and it is now reading much closer (though still a hair high IMO).

ravensrule Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 This new upgrade does suck, but everyone here is a volunteer so i greatly appreciate their efforts. Just be thankful this is being done now and not in the winter. Just to reiterate this upgrade sucks balls in every way shape and form. I guess we are stuck with it though so lets make it work.

Generally these stations have platinum RTDs which are very accurate and repeatable, and exhibit a nearly linear behavior. They dont tend to gradually "drift" off the resistance vs temp curve, outside of an occurrence of contamination or possibly corrosion, which is pretty rare as the sensors are sealed or potted. Usually the culprit, if it seems to read erroneously higher during the day, is sun exposure/failure to effectively aspirate the enclosure, or possibly a calibration issue with the measurement circuit that measures the resistance change.

PhineasC Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 It crawls for me. When I hit save on a post it is 50/50 whether or not it will take.
