Met stations
It is more representative of local coastal conditions than the Bidston site. This weather station has now replaced the Bidston Observatory weather station. Todays, weekly and monthly measurements Meteorological measurements are displayed as ten minute summaries, last twenty-four hours and the last seven days. » View ALL latest Hilbre Island measurements Todays (including the latest measurements), the last 24 hours and the last seven days of measurements. » Review Hilbre Island 2009 full archive month by month » Review Hilbre Island 2008 full archive month by month » Review Hilbre Island 2007 full archive month by month » Review Hilbre Island 2006 full archive month by month » Review Hilbre Island 2005 full archive month by month » Review Hilbre Island 2004 full archive month by month Bidston Observatory measurements This station has now ceased to take measurements (26th Nov 2004) due to the POL relocation to Liverpool. Once the new owners are established we may attempt to reinstate the weather station to supplement the Hilbre Island weather station. Gladstone Lock measurements Currently damaged. This weather station will not be replaced due to problems of access to the location. Archived data Archived ten minute data are now available. In order to download and view them you will need to register your details so that we have a record of data usefullness. Hilbre Island (53° 23' N 3° 14' W) Data format Station number Year Day number (e.g. 1 is 1st of January). » View conversion tables for day numbers to dates Time (hrs, min) Barometric pressure (mb) Wind speed (m/s) Wind Direction (degrees e.g. An angle of 0 degrees is a wind coming from the North) Humidity (%) Air temperature (degrees centigrade) Solarity (W/m2) PAR (micro mol/m^2/s) Rainfall (mm) Wind gust (m/s) Battery voltage (V) Important data notes: 1. The rain gauge was off-line between 18th January and 27th April 2005. Data values were recorded as zero values. 2. There is evidence from the data that the rain gauge has been over reading during the windiest periods. This would suggest that the unit is being shaken to the extent that tips are being registered. We have added extra supports to try and prevent this from happening, however if it continues we may have to move the gauge lower down on the tower. Bidston Observatory(53° 24' N 3° 04' W) Data format Date (year, month, day) Time (hrs, min) Barometric pressure (mb) Wind speed (knots) Wind Direction (degrees e.g. An angle of 0 degrees is a wind coming from the North) Precipitation (a column exists for these data, however they are erroneous due to the rain gauge being damaged) Air temperature (degrees centigrade) Humidity (%) Solar radiation (W/m2) Statistical data Bidston Observatory daily, monthly and yearly statistics can be found on the POL website, in Adobe pdf format. These can be accessed without the need to register. Status last updated on 9th Febuary 10 » View all status messages Met stations 5th February 2010 The anemometer was taken off the tower today. The rain gauge was blocked by debris. New weather station scheduled for Wed 10th February. Note: The wind sensor has lost its rotor, probably due to a worn bearing. Analysis of data indicates that the problem started on the 18th December 2009. |
