Welcome to FARPOINT Weather
Located in White Hall, MD. FARPOINT WEATHER, an extension of the Sola Virtus Observatory, gathers
weather data consisting of barometric pressure, temperature, humidity, dew point, wind speed, wind direction, wind chill,
precipitation and u.v. radiation levels. A Davis Vantage Pro2 weather station along with a Davis Wireless
Envoy logs all weather data and uploads the information using WeatherLink 5.71 software to the
Citizen Weather Observer Program thru the APRSWXNET using the Station ID# CW6888. The incoming data has to pass a quality check before it is distributed to agencies such as Madis and NOAA where it is made available to forecaster's, pilots and the general public. FARPOINT WEATHER sends data
to the Weather Underground using the Station ID# KMDWHITE7. FARPOINT WEATHER also monitors dew point, humidity and temperature inside
the Sola Virtus Observatory as well as wind speed and precipitation via a Davis Wireless Envoy and uploaded using Virtual Weather.
