I use Hostpapa, they're Canadian, with an international help desk that is decent and they're cheap.
I've started buying the longest term, it's more of an initial outlay but it saves me moving when the renewal fees jump astronomically. $3/month for a 3 year term. https://www.hostpapa.ca/orders/web-host ... al&term=36
Yeah, I had a 3 year term with Hostpapa and it was around $4 a month, but that ends in August and they wanted $14.99 a month for another 3 years.
I've already switched to Hostinger. I didn't want to wait until the last minute and risk something going wrong.

Is it just me or is it much cooler so far today. 21° at 2pm, doubt the forecasted high in my area of 27° is reached. Yesterday's high was 26°
Fairly warm here with temp hovering around +27.0c as of 2pm.

The models appear to be increasing odds of some precipitation as we head towards August. Wouldn't it be funny if the taps turn on around the PNE?
It's currently 26C.
It would indicate a normal winter if that happens no drought until November 1st would be nice as well.
Hey does anyone have any suggestions for improving the accuracy of weather station humidity readings? While my temperature seems to be very close, my humidity is consistently reading significantly lower than every nearby station. In fact, at times it's obvious that it's off by simply stepping outside. Unfortunately, I don't really have too many options for placement but I'm curious as to why I'm always reading so low. There is an option to calibrate it but I'm not sure what number + or - to use. However, it would be nice to improve it's accuracy since it affects the dew point.

I ran in to the same and switched to Godaddy, I use webmail and it was terrible so I went back to Hostpapa after a couple of months and got their promo pricing. I don't have much of a website so it's pretty easy to move back and forth. I'll check out Hostinger in a couple of years when my current term expires.
Pretty poor business model imo, though I know a lot of businesses use it.

For sure Jr man l can give you a suggestion perhaps check out some Wunderground stations in your hood and set your humidity to that station l'm glad that station is still working for you.
We reached a high of 29c @ the pond in south Sardis.
