Wind run not working

[Timppamies]

Hi

Windrun sticks to 0.0, i.e. not working.

pws(34) pages: https://veikkola-saa.com/pws/

Comparison (same data source, different template): https://veikkola-saa.com (just change language option, first unit... more)

I'm working on a new way to calculate a more realistic wind run for the past 24 hours based on the 5 minute averages over the last 24 hours. If I get it working on my server (which currently gets a value for Wind Run), can I test it on your server where Wind Run calculation isn't currently working right?

Hi Thank you for the info. Sure, happy to help I.e to test in my server. BR - Timo

Using m/s as your wind unit, I assume the distance unit should be km, right?

In mbridge/mb.php:
Add the new lines from 76-99 and 126-127 in the gist.

Create the file test.php and add the code from the gist's test.php.

This will create a new json file in jsondata folder to save the last 24 hrs worth of 5 min wind averages and display them all along with a km/mi sum at the bottom of test.php.

Hi Code changed + test.php implemented. I’ll keep you posted. BR - Timo

Seeing a sum of 0.4km so far, which is very reassuring. On the test page, each array value is the km for each 5min and it's summed at the bottom of it. Big thing is that 24 hrs after you initially implemented it, make sure that the array cuts off at 287. Has to be 287 at the 24 hr mark and then never goes above 287.

Btw, array starts counting at 0, which is why it's 287 instead of 288.

Hi First impressions after one day. Array stops at 287 as expected. If I understood correct, wind run number represent last 24 hour as a rolling number. Compared to number from meteotemplate (which shows wind run for the day) they are in the same ball park. So, it looks very promising. Thanks. Regards -Timo

Looks like its working good. I'll update the template for the changes and push them out this week.

When I do, git will complain to you about a couple modified files, namely mbridge/mb.php, and livedata.php and windraindirection.php if you changed those files. You'll need to use the command git checkout -- <files> to reset those back to normal prior to the git pull command actually working. The jsondata/windavg.json file isn't tracked by git, so it shouldn't complain about that file at all, and you won't lose the current averages either.

Agree, works like a charm. Thanks. BR - Timo
