Welcome to the Peterson Nature Area Weather Page

This image, taken from the eastern weather station, is updated to the Peterson Nature Area HP weather server every three minutes. The views may change periodically. In the near future, viewers will be able to pan, tilt and zoom the camera over the internet. If the image does not update automatically, just refresh your browser.

The Peterson Nature Area has two weather stations. One is located on the west side of the research facility on top of the MBR Building and the other is located on the east side of the Nature Area on top of a 15 foot wildlife observation tower. Both weather stations download collected weather data every ten minutes to their respective computer servers. The weather computers generate the needed code that is uploaded to the Nature Area web severs. As a result, the weather web pages are updated every 10 minutes.

For a number of technical reasons the east side weather station is more reliable and stable than the older weather station located on the MBR building. Just click the following links to their respective weather stations.
