Can anyone tell me why 5 independent wireless weather stations would all stop connecting at the same time?

Have you had a cold snap or any sudden change of weather come thru recently, such as the night before they quit working? Are all of the outdoor sensors battery powered?

Alexa, please jam the neighbors annoying weather stations. They’re interfering with my new wireless toilet flusher

Do you know time wise and date when it happened this time?

Satan,

Putin,

Or Dick Cheney

I blame Pfizer.

Don’t be redundant.

Why Santa :smiling_imp:
Sometimes I seem to be a bit dyslexic. Like when I read yes, and she meant no.

It could be aliens. Maybe Jeff Goldblum can help.

For real, I’d suspect interference, or a dead receiver. “Reboot” them all by puling the power sources and see if it helps.

when our wireless stations sporadically stopped showing sensor signals,
we relocated the sensors/station. that worked until it did not.
(we have only two: LaCrosse and Oregon Scientific)
we reset everything and they worked until they quit.
bottom line: insects were getting inside the sensors.
apparently, some insects LIKE electricity.

“There are a variety of insects that have an affinity for electrical hardware…”

Ya never know, the electronic smog is getting thick out there.

Thanks for all of the suggestions.

During the day today they all started picking up their signals again. Not all at once but over 12 hours or so.

I live in a rural area and no neighbors are too close. The hardware and batteries all look visually OK - no cracks, corrosion, bugs or water. Nothing new in the house. I have shut off individual breakers in the house but never all at once which is what I will try if this happens again.

This event started on Oct. 5 in the early AM EDT probably around 3:00 AM give or take an hour.

The event last year was on Sunday June 2 but I don't know the time. Here is a link that a friend sent me at the time that seemed like it could have been connected to.

I know nothing about the site but it was interesting to see what supposedly happened at the same time.

I don't know the MHz but will check into it.

One or two or even three having problems at once might happen but five unrelated ones at the same time points to something other than the weather stations themselves. It just tough finding it.

Again, thanks for the ideas.

They are 433 MHz. I do have another one that is 900MHz that is working and has always worked great.

I had one stop and start working again back this spring around June.

Ooh, like the dreaded Rasberry ants…

Cheyenne Mountain, eh?

I don’t think it’s coincidence that opening the iris on the chappa’ai was done with a GDO (garage-door opener)…

Spiders are the constant enemies of accurate rainfall reports of my wireless stations.
Wife constantly belittles me with her mason jar totals.

I spray the post holding the rain gauge with Terro Spider Killer and it keeps the spiders from coming.

When it is raining hard the message on the display of the Davis station actually says "Its Raining Cats and Dogs".

420-470MHz it’s ham radio band in USA.
433.00-435.00 are Auxiliary/repeater links
Also 400MHz band is used for home security monitoring radio links, taxi repeaters etc. Those stations are using high power and can disrupt communication between weather station base and sensors even in 10-20km range because of low quality RF section in those devices.
Since it is ISM band you can do nothing about that except moving to 900MHz.

Maybe there is a signal jammer present there…trying to disable antitheft alarms…

Who knows…

I want to know finally what the issue is…

Ok, now THAT was funny! :smiley:
