Weather
nowcast means a current broadcast of local weather conditions. Most
national weather stations operated by the national weather service
update their weather conditions on an hourly basis. These observations
are taken 5 to 15 minutes before the top of the hour. What
weatherNOWcast aims to do is bring you local weather conditions and
forecasts that are as current as possible; broadcasting the weather NOW
from private weather stations from north New Jersey.
WeatherNOWcast
went online in 2003. The Hawthorne Train Station in New Jersey is
currently our base of operations. We use a Davis Instruments weather
station that includes a precipitation gauge (heated so it melts the
snow), ultraviolet and solar radiation sensors and the normal battery
of temperature, humidity sensors and an anemometer for wind
observations. All this information is brought to you real time via
weatherNOWcast .
