The WeatherFlow forecast (link to the right) from the Still Water Lake Estates Tempest weather station is now doing a good job at forecasting, this is a A.I. driven forecast that continuously updates. With the WindAlert app subtract 20% from the wind speed forecast, WindAlert forecasts for a height of 33' feet above the ground rather than at the surface. The WindAlert forecast will look similar to the image below but not exactly since the app updates every hour. For a wind speed and direction forecast the WindAlert app is still doing better thanTempest.


For temperature forecasts (especially lows) use the forecast links to the right from the National Weather Service (NWS). Cold air settles at night so lows will often be lower than the WeatherFlow/WindAlert forecast, the Tempest weather station is located on top of the tunnel plus another 9' feet or so above the ground. On clear calm nights lows down on the lower areas of the community will be about 3-5 degrees colder than the low reported by the weather station.

Scot Chipman is still looking for a homeowner (including kids) that would be interested in reporting daily precipitation measurements at Still Water Lake Estates. The observations would only need to be reported when there is new rain/snow, easy to report on-line at https://www.cocorahs.org or you could also text Scot. The observation would be part of the CoCoRaHS network which gets picked up by the National Weather Service.
