Weather at the Helwig Center Station
|
Current conditions and NPU forecast: Every few days, web display (graphics and text) of most current weather station data, except for barometric pressure and rainfall, appears to be incorrect for part of the day. If the historic "Over the Past Day" plots show current values, however, the current values for those variables are correct. Unfortunately, we are unable to address this problem in the near future. We apologize for the inconvenience.
