I'm interested in getting the WeatherCam's water temp readings back in business. I don't know what it will take though. Water temp monitor says it's working properly (green LED light) but the readings are all messed up ever since lightning "struck the clock tower" about 1000 feet away, back on Labor Day weekend. All electronics at this location got knocked out (one of the perils of running an "always-on" weather monitor on the waterfront) but a couple days later a 12-year-old friend whose family came for Labor Day got all the electronics back online (still not sure what the kid did!) but he said the water temp monitor was a no-go.
I'm looking into a wireless, long-term solution. If anyone has an idea let me know.
I would gladly work with a group like UNH or PSU who would provide the equipment. Any solution that would free me from rushing home to protect the equipment from thunderstorms every time they happen.
