Once you are logged in you will need to create a new WOW site. “Sites”
are the means by which WOW organizes weather data you contribute.
Basically, WOW builds a personal web site for your weather station.
Associated with the web site is two items you will need to allow
uploading of data:
Site ID:
This is an arbitrary number that is used to distinguish your site
from another. This number appears (in brackets) next to or underneath
the name of your site on the site information page, for example:
6a571450-df53-e611-9401-0003ff5987fd
Authentication Key:
This is a 6-digit number that is used to ensure data
is coming from you and not another user.

You will be presented with a form where you detail your station’s location
and a bunch of other settings related to how you wish the site to operate.
After you complete the setup, you should see:

Now click on “My Sites” in the navigation bar at the top. If you have only

to choose the correct one first. On this page, you will find the site id just
