What is Live Weather & How Does it Work:
This live weather page is the original (classic) page from nearly 10 years ago. The live page has under gone many updates since then. Call us nostalgic, we wanted to include this page on our website along with all the other themed live pages.
Our outdoor wireless solar powered Davis VP2 Pro Plus weather station instruments sends weather data to an indoor weather control console that collects all of the weather data. The indoor weather control console is wired directly to the El Dorado Weather computer server. This control console sends data directly to the server which immediately uploads the data via FTP to our on line web server. The time it takes from the outdoor weather station to the web server is approximately 2 to 3 seconds. To save bandwidth we typically decrease data upload times to 15 seconds unless it is raining. If it is raining we set it to upload every 2 to 3 seconds.
When new weather data is received it updates the data on the above weather panel. You can visually see newly updated data on the weather panel when it briefly flashes the data in green for about two seconds and then returns back to normal with the updated value.
Only the data being updated will flash to green. The time of day and or date will independently flash green whenever there is a data update with the new time and date of the latest updated values.

Placerville Location & Forecast Information: This weather station is located at 1,703 ft, about 2 miles from highway 50 and El Dorado Rd. We have been providing Placerville, CA with live online weather data since June of 2006. This is one of our original web pages from our birth back in 2006. This page has seen many upgrades over the years. We have grown steadily since then to around 100,000 weather related web pages to serve most cities and towns across the entire world.
Placerville has many different elevation changes which manifests itself in 11 different micro climates. Placerville spans elevations from near 1,600 feet up to near 2,600 feet. This is why we offer 4 different forecasts for Placerville in order to cover the different elevations and provide more accurate forecasts.
All of Placerville's 4 different forecast links are located right below the forecast icons on this web page. They are highlighted in yellow.
Data Measurement Information: As with many locations in the foothills, trees can be a factor in the mornings and later in the afternoon for measurements such as Wind, Solar & UV. Particularly in the cold season when the sun is low on the horizon. Our anemometer is 26 feet high, but still wind runs a few mph lower than normal in a couple directions where trees are present, which is accurately adjusted for. Our station data records go back to June 22, 2006, 9 years of Placerville data as of this writing. Normals & Records are based on downtown Placerville historic records dating back decades, not from this stations shorter term data. We do however use our own historic station data in many other instances.
