RAWS Weather Stations |
||
|
|
RAWS, Remote Automated Weather Stations, are typically owned and maintained by local wildland fire agencies to monitor local fire danger conditions. These weather stations collect, store, and send data to the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho via the GOES satellite. |
|
|
Fire managers use this data to predict fire behavior and monitor fuels, resource managers use the data to monitor environmental conditions. Usually updated every hour. Link opens into a new browser window. Use the raw data text link to get last 24-hours. All raw data records day of the month and times in Zulu (UTC), subtract 7 hours if local time is PDT (UTC-7), 8 hours if local time is PST (UTC-8). |

The
Station WeatherCAM top

Boulder-Creek.com Weather Camera |
 |
| Looking south-west towards Ben
Lomond Mountain. The image is updated every minute. Winter exposure
requires the camera to be pointing downwards to avoid sun-burning the camera
sensor. (Note burn marks in the upper right hand quadrant.)
A 24 hour time lapse movie is available below of the same scene, courtesy of WeatherUnderground. Note that this feature is still in beta mode SO HICCUPS ARE TO BE EXPECTED. The time lapse movie frame is currently updated every five minutes with the above image. |
|
24 Hour Weather Camera |
Due to the poor quality of Wunderground's Flash compilation. I've managed to put my own "yesterday" 24 hour time-lapse weather webcam that shows both 5 minute incremental images from the webcamera along with the weather conditions superimposed over the webcam image. The timelapse webcam movie updates at midnight for the previous day. This feature is under development and is subject to change.

Wind Conditions
top
 |
|
| Note: Wind conditions in downtown Boulder Creek typically are much higher than what is represented here due to 'valley wind-tunnel effect'. This weather station is off Highway 9 about a mile from Boulder Creek and sits a couple hundred feet above the valley floor . On the wind rose compass, the inner band is 10 mph and the outer band is set to 20 mph. Anything beyond the 20 mph band is high winds! |
