\"ThorntonWeather.comThorntonWeather.com is provided as a free service to the community simply because we love the weather!\u00a0 However the site and the associated hardware are quite expensive to operate and occasionally we seek our vistors\u2019 help in funding improvements.<\/p>\n

In the past donations have helped us to replace a faulty temperature sensor.\u00a0 Today we are seeking help in upgrading one of our most popular features \u2013 the webcams<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our webcams are now 5+ years old and quite frankly not very good quality by today’s standards.\u00a0 Heading into the winter months we are wanting to upgrade them to allow you to get a better view at the weather outside.<\/p>\n

To that end we are asking for donations to fund the purchase of two new high-definition webcams.\u00a0 We have identified the cameras we would like to purchase and they provide remarkably high quality imagery far exceeding our current cameras.<\/p>\n

If you are able, please consider making a contribution to the \u2018webcam fund\u2019 \u2013 any amount, no matter how big or small is greatly appreciated and will go directly to the purchase of the cameras. \u00a0Thank you!<\/p>\n

Click here to visit our donation page to contribute today.<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Update, 10\/31\/12 – We have received $135.00 in donations toward new HD webcams so far. \u00a0The cameras will cost $300 so if you are able, please consider contributing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
