The weather logger at APO has now been collecting data for just over
two years (it started Feb 1, 1996). I have assembled (and cleaned a
bit) the data and now make the files available on the WWW for any
studies you may want to perform. The database is now being
automatically refreshed each weekend to include the past week's data.
Both daily min, max, median values as well as all values ever logged
are available in consistently-formatted text files, which should be
easy to import into most software. Missing and bad data are handled in
an appropriate way. I also include some plots to give a quick peek at
the contents of the database; obviously these plots can't display
everything you may want to know from the data, but the database files
themselves are available for that purpose.
My new home page for accessing the database as well as the usual daily
plots is now:

I don't have very much time to devote to this stuff, but questions and
comments are welcome.
regards,
Eric
