Marin Valley Weather Website — weather.MVMCC.org
A high-quality weather station located right in the Park on the north section of Club View Drive provides a highly detailed snapshot of the local weather. It measures high and low temperatures, wind speed and direction, air pressure, rainfall and many other metrics. These are collected and streamed onto the website weather.mvmcc.org and can be checked from any computer connected to the internet. The data is automatically updated every five minutes throughout the day and night.
There are graphs of maximum and minimum temperatures, humidity, dew points, rainfall for each day, and detailed graphs of wind direction. How high the clouds are is also measured.
The readings will not be exactly the same as at all homes in Marin Valley, but this is by far the closest weather station you will find. There is also a link to future forecasts. There are 12 other weather stations in Novato; most weather sites on the Internet get information from Pleasant Valley near Novato Blvd. Here it’s possible to stay abreast of very local weather.
