    I am checking my five weather sources for this week, and will record actual temps. I have found the NWS to be most reliable. One can select your LAT/LONG and it calculates altitude also.
    I have 130 taps in on vacuum and hope to get that many in SUN for this early FEB run and test the RO
    Of course, I would have liked to put the night/day temps, but I didn't and already spent to much time on this.....

    ................SUN.........MON.........TUE....... ...WED.........THUR

    WU...........46/36.......46/28....... 39/29....... 49/29....... 37/22
    NWS........ 43/39....... 45/27....... 34/29....... 46/28....... 31/19
    WC.......... 44/37....... 45/27....... 37/29....... 49/29....... 35/22
    ACCU....... 44/36....... 47/24....... 37/22....... 46/29....... 36/17
    W4U ....... 46/39....... 48/28....... 37/30....... 46/30....... 36/21

    ACTUAL...
    *****UPDATE*****

    Not bad forecasting overall I would say, with the exception of Thursday, which was six days away when the forecast was made

    ACTUAL... 43/31.......47/29........39/32.......51/31........49/17

    SAP RUN.....240g Sun/Mon.........150g.........150g.........200g thru Fri AM

    I am so glad I tapped. I tested the RO and dumped the first 240g, and then processed over 500 gallons to make about 7 gallons of amber on what was eventually 320 taps.
