The main Gorge sensors (Swell through Dougs) have not updated since noon. Please fix asap.

Well, they fixed that problem, but notice that the time scale on the Dynamic Graph wind plots is cut off.

The sensors are not updating again. Stopped around 4:45.

First wind in a full week out east (and none forecast until NEXT weekend), unforecast and thus suspect, and the sensors quit again. I'm not driving 70 miles at 6 PM just because a whiff of wind passed by an hour ago with no updates since then. I guess it's time to notify iW this time.

Looks like somebody got their attention on it; it's displaying a HELP icon now ... whatever that means. That's a start. I note they also fixed the Dynamic Graph time axis issue.

As for this evening's little burst of surprise wind ... radar is clear so it's not a squall, but the 6 PM gradient update does not give me any confidence in making the drive on a gamble.

We gotta use every resource available to help make our Drive decisions. Mine? Go the frigging gym in the morning ... a rarely necessary event this time of the year. Worse yet, this season's wind-killing west coast heat is forecast to get much worse over the next few decades even if the AGW deniers are right.
