Rockfish Depot Webcam Down and UP!

The webcam is down... Didn't have time today to check the power fully. It is a connection to the solar panel that is loose. I will have to take off the cover of the breaker box because I think the break is in there (I hope). I guess you will know when the power is back on (webcam will work). All in all, the solar power has done a tremendous job over the years in powering the webcam. I guess I need to go and do some preventive maintenance more often.

Rain Guage fixed...

Fixed the rain bucket on the Weather Station so now it should be pretty accurate. Some wasps and debris were clogging the hole making rain do a slow drip on the sensor. The debris ring is gone from the Davis Vantage Pro bucket and I'm looking for a replacement. I even had standing water in the self draining bucket. I apologize for not doing it sooner, but many other things were going on to divert my time. I really needed it to make sure that the garden was getting proper irrigation by God or water hose...
