In the beginning (2007) LYW was focused on installing and growing a weather station network to fill in the data gaps.
Those gaps are slowly being filled as time and technology march forward, however we still honor our original purpose by hosting a few stations showcased below.
Ultimately we will migrate these stations to an interactive map and steer new installations toward outdoor recreation sites, to better inform those using the area on current and past weather conditions.
Our goals are simple. Expand data collection and drum up enthusiasm about the
unique weather found here in SW NC.
We always encourage our readers to follow and engage with other weather sources,
in particular the National Weather Service out of GSP during life threatening events.
If you'd like us to focus on a particular location, add a specific feature to the site
or perhaps collaborate on a project, reach out to us at lywswnc@gmail.com.
