My realtime sno tel ticker has not showed a reading in about 2 weeks. All it says is 0.0 for everything. I pm'd Christopher about this and he says his is working fine. Is anyone else experiancing the same problem as me? If so please post here so Christopher can see who is having the problem.

I went to the NRCS site and the snotel's I look at show totals there.

The SnoTel data is not showing. The ticker is working...but the data is not there.

I've also had problems loading the SnoTel site at times.

I see they've also go with a different data table software (report generator) on their site. Might have something to do with it.

If you look down through the Cooke data table, a LOT of data is missing.

http://www.wcc.nrcs.usda.gov/report...EQ::value,SNWD::value,PREC::value,TOBS::value

Your ticker may be trying to post data from a time entry where that data is missing.

And if you are watching different sites than Christopher, his may not be missing data while yours is.

I also know that the ticker doesn't show the most CURRENT hourly data. Often times it may show the data point that is a few hours behind current live readins.
