Thanks!
I was going to try to get the conversion to inches done this past week but discovered that I had not set up the raspberry pi VNC servers for remote “cloud” access. So, rather than spending a few hours sorting out how to do the database conversion I was forced to take walks, bike rides, and sight seeing tours on Maui while visiting family instead 🙂
I may try to make the conversion this weekend and then integrate the snow depth data into the front page of BigTreesTech.
I am pretty pleased with how incredibly accurate the measurements seem to be! When you look at the graph, you can see the effect of snow compressing over time.

Hi Joe- your new snow measuring device is working great. I have a similar reading on my old school set up (snow pole with remote HD camera). Thank you for all you do! Knowing what we are getting in to before driving up the hill is a big deal for many of us.

Saw this on The Pine Tree web site.

“The former Cottage Springs ski area will be reborn as a family sledding and snow play area under a permit unanimously approved by the Calaveras County Board of Supervisors at its meeting last week.”

Maybe this is what’s going on.

Drove by Cottage Springs yesterday and things are really changing. Does anyone know what is being built up there?

That’s great! Now we just need some snow, lots of it.

It’s working! It’s taken a lot of work and a lot of hours but I am stoked that the snow sensor system is working.

This morning I will be restarting the software that creates all the weather data and camera images. This is required to initiate the new snow measurement function. It is possible, even likely, that the new software will cause problems so the weather information and images may not be updated until I get all the bugs worked out.

I noticed that Delos Insurance Solutions was advertising heavily on the thepinetree.net as a provider of insurance in wildfire/brush regions. Their ad contact information was http://www.getdelos.com/calaveras (415) 935-3244.

There is also FAIR Plan which is an insurer of last resort funded by every insurance company doing business in California–an insurance pool. Not sure if the property needs to be a primary residence or not. This is usually offered through independent insurance agents.

Just some ideas. Hope they pan out.

Thanks, Ward. FYI, I just called and they told me that they are NOT insuring up there unless you are an existing customer.

I won’t be ordering the antenna. I have Comcast for TV and Internet

I had good luck with Black Bear insurance last year when it was impossible for me to get insurance.

Call Wayne Weathers at State Farm
1-650-615-0351 met with him on Tuesday and he said he is insuring property in BT and SSS. Tell him Ward referred you.

Wouldn’t it be great if that worked? Let us know if you get it. More importantly, if it works.
