Ever wonder how much rain has fallen in the last 7 days? I came across an web site that takes the guess work out of it, it is called Rain Caddy. All you do is enter your postal code and it will find the closest Environment Canada weather station and give you the results.
I updated the local weather display on the website, I replaced what I had (originally from the Environment Canada website) with a php script that pulls the same data from the EC website. The old one was flash based which didn’t work on the ipad.
Entered my postal code and it came up with Warfield. then I entered Rossland, BC and it came up with Rossland Ave in Trail. Oh well.
The way government cuts are going, you’re lucky you even have a climate station that close to Rossland. Pretty soon the closest one will be at the airport in Castlegar.
