Barbican Weather Data

Dear Residents
Barbican Weather Data
You can now get weather data for three locations on the Barbican estate.

Part of the work undertaken by the RCC's (Residents' Consultation Committee's) Underfloor Heating Working Party (UHWP) is attempting to understand how the external weather conditions impact the temperatures attained in our flats.

During the last heating season the UHWP set up temperature monitoring equipment in 20 flats around the estate. At the same time three weather stations were set up on the estate by the University of Reading to collect external weather data.
The UHWP and the University are currently trying to model the relationship between the external conditions, the heating supply and the temperature attained in each flat.
This is just part of the work that the UHWP is carrying out; you may have read in your recent service charge statement of the favourable outcome of the negotiations for a new supply tariff.
The University are not charging us for any of this work.
It seemed like a good idea to share the external weather data and you can now see yesterday's data updated daily here;
With regards
Barbican Estate Office
