Entire networks missing from Obs Monitor (AWS, DAVIS, Weatherflow-Tempest)

Hi, 

I noticed today that my office (EPZ) Obs Monitor includes no stations from AWS, DAVIS, and Weatherflow-Tempest (though I'm not sure if the latter should be available with its useless rain sensors).  I can add stations from DAVIS manually, but that would be a lot of manual work.

Is there any way to restore these networks in their entirety? (Did someone remove them?)

Alternatively, is there any way to mass-feed data into the Wx Reports table, such as by uploading a CSV manually, or feeding it in automatically some other way?  We could easily grab data and metadata from the Synoptic Data API, filter it by report-worthy thresholds, and bypass the Obs Monitor entirely.  We used to do this with Eclairs back in the day. 

Thanks,
-Mike

Hi Mike,

Thanks for letting us know. It looks like they were deleted. I restored the missing providers. When IRIS is moved to NWS Connect, we're planning on using the synoptic API as the upstream source.

Thanks,
Matt
