The weather station in use is the Davis Vantage Pro2. This page automatically updates and refreshes every 10 minutes.
The meteorological day ends at midnight.
These scripts attempt to forecast severe weather. It will send out two types of emails:
1) Forecast of severe weather over the next 6-12 hours
2) Detection of severe weather within the next 10-15 minutes.
If a severe thunderstorm signature is detected, it will send the expected wind speeds based off of pressure changes, and if its a straight-line wind or tornado expected within 10-15 minutes of arrival.

I also added logic that uses the solar sensor to detect what the sky condition is utilizing expected levels of radiation on a clear day and a time variable to take into consideration cloud movement.

SEVERE WEATHER FORECAST:
Severe weather not expected.

If the colorbar is increasing over time, the severe threat may be increasing. It has to be at the max level (6) for an hour before severe weather will be possible.

Discussion: The Theta-E index is not rising. This suggests instability and moisture may be decreasing. It also suggests lift may be decreasing. Pressure is not falling fast enough. This may suggest that the system is not providing enough lift. Pressure is not very low. This suggests the system may not be very strong or not close. Wind speeds are too low. This suggests there is poor convergence and/or strong capping. Dew point is too low. Instability is too low.
