                                                                                                                            KINGLAKE WEATHER STATION INFORMATION
The Kinglake APRS Weather (WX) Station commenced operation on 00:00 September 24, 2006, taking continuous readings every 30 to 5 seconds to record min & max values and observational readings on the hour (00:00) and half-hour (00:30) of Wind Speed, Direction, Gusts, Wind Chill, Temp, Dew Point, Relative Humidity, Barometric Pressure and Rainfall. This information is sent from the Weather Station to a computer and is also transmitted live via the Amateur Radio APRS Packet Network to VHF radio repeaters in Yea (VK3RMG-1), Melbourne (VK3MY-2) and Alexandra (VK3RAD-1). The Live Data & Recent WX Data is provided via Amateur Radio to the internet on 145.175MHz FM and the monthly statistics are from the data files created by the Weather Station. I have strived, as much as possible, to keep the data in the same format as the Australian Bureau of Meteorology. In the USA, the same system used in Kinglake (APRS WX Station) is used to report weather to their government's national weather agency NOAA and forms part of the US Weather Watch network for Hurricane Warnings, and as our Weather Bureau and the USA's NOAA follow World Meteorological Organisation standards, the Kinglake Weather Station complies with these standards and provides real-time readings of the current conditions on the "Ganglehoff Hill" area of Kinglake, Victoria, Australia, 3763. Data prior to September 24, 2006 is from the Bureau of Meteorology, Melbourne Water (MMBW) old written records or acknowledged separately where used. This site and weather data is provided as a not-for-profit community service to Kinglake residents, as per Amateur Radio Regulations. (ITU).
