    I am a PWS personal weather station owner who reports to WU. Want to set my station to show for state/city added, but lat/long reporting is not mine. Is there some way to change to have the setting reflect my lat/long or WU station name?
    Thanks for a great program.

      First (to make sure), Meteorologist Classic or Meteorologist 3.0?

      How is the station visible to WU? What process do you use to see it?

      What are you using for location city in Meteo (if 3.0)?

    Gah Sorry!! Meterologist 3.0
    Station is visible to WU as Catalina AZ along with others
    and also as KAZCATAL3. Reporting program is WeatherCat 2.4.1 build 14.
    URL: https://www.wunderground.com/us/az/catalina/zmw:85738.1.99999

    Location city used in 3.0 is AZ/Catalina, tried AZ/Black Horse Ranch with no luck and also AZ/KAZCATAL3..same thing...all 9999.

    Thanks for help!

    Update: Appears that information is being gleaned for Catalina, AZ from this site:
    https://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=pws:KAZCATAL8

    I input the 85738.1.99999 code from my reporting site and it appears this MAY have solved the issue. I am monitoring now to see if corresponding to my station and not this other one.

      Try putting in pws:KAZCATAL8 for the location. That "seems" to work.

    Except..that is NOT my station, KAZCATAL3 is...and that did it....correct syntax is: AZ/pws:KAZCATAL3!
    And now reporting my personal weather station info!!

    WOOOT WOOT!! THANK YOU!
