WXKJBC has been reporting backyard weather as a hobby since 2009 - first near Kenosha, Wisconsin, then near South Bend, Indiana (Nature's Gate subdivision) as of March 2016. Recording the weather online started with an interest in our "microweather" since precipitation events can be quite local and there are many practical reasons for knowing exactly how much rain fell, how strong the winds were, and how much the sun shone in "my" backyard! This interest combined with a desire to learn to code from the bottom up, create a website and apply that knowledge in a useful way has culminated in this site.
This site currently uses a Davis Vantage Pro system to record the weather data literally in the backyard, Weather Display as a vehicle for the data and some of the graphics, and references other weather assets from the National Weather Service and Weather Underground to complete the picture. NOAA alert scripts have been adapted from Saratoga Weather, and the HTML5, CSS and JavaScript coding was learned from W3 Schools.
While this site is primarily for our own use and is a work in progress, we hope it provides information and enjoyment for others. If there are comments or ideas to improve this site, contact: wxkjbc (at) gmail (dot) com.
