Real-time weather data and images offered by Clemson

Weather data and images from the top of Clemson University’s Memorial Stadium now are available online from a new weather station. Florida-based WeatherSTEM donated the weather station to Clemson and 10 other Atlantic Coast Conference universities. An emergency manager at Florida State University saw a story about WeatherStem and realized it had potential uses at his school. Another was installed at the University of Miami.  The tiger paw-painted weather station at Memorial Stadium has live streaming cameras, radar and data it displays online at http://pickens.weatherstem.com/clemson and on iPhone and Android apps,Facebook and Twitter. Images captured during a 24-hour period are stitched together every day to form a time-lapse view of the sky as weather changes. Data, such as rainfall, barometric pressure and wind speed, are collected and can be downloaded for specific periods. Teachers can pull data from the weather station to use in their classrooms.
