Automatic Weather Stations at bases

Weather data every minute from automatic weather stations at the 4 Australian stations. Data extends back to 1995 when it was logged every ten minutes.

    Click on Station name to see its location.
    Click on WG to see a weather gauge plot of the latest weather.
    Click on a measurement to see a plot of the last 2 days data.

    This data is also available on the Station Weather page.

    Note - all references to local station times have been removed as local station time gets adjusted many times for operational reasons.
