About These Weather Pages
The weather pages on this website use weather data from available sources on the Internet as well as a Davis Instruments Vantage Pro2 weather station located in Division 3 of our development. The station is comprised of an anemometer which measures wind speed and direction, a rain gauge that measures rain within .01 inches, a solar sensor, and temperature and humidity sensor. Data is collected from the weather station in real time using a program called Weather Display The Weather Display software uploads data and web pages to the KREHA website that is configured using a template design by CarterLake.org with PHP conversion by Saratoga-Weather.org. These website templates include the capability to include various optional Internet sources of weather information. This weather data is updated continuously and is available on a 24-7 basis.
