As part of the Standard setup you can request Cumulus to provide pseudo real-time data. In this example, 15 seconds. Consider Realtime carefully -- firstly this impacts on your internet connection as Cumulus will update a very small file on your website every 15 seconds. Also, some weather stations only update Cumulus less often (e.g. The Fine OffSets are every 48 seconds) so a 15 second realtime update is wasteful and unnecessary. In reality, the standard cumulus web templates used in this Simple setup only include two ‘realtime’ elements to show windspeed and direction. If you do not wish to provide realtime data untick the “Enable Realtime” | As part of the Standard setup you can request Cumulus to provide pseudo real-time data. In this example, 15 seconds.
