The update rolls on...

As of 17:16 CDT, the massive Weather Now v3 to v5 import had 115,441,906 records left to transfer. At 14:28 CDT yesterday, it was at 157,409,431, giving us a rate of ( 41,967,525 / 96,480 seconds = ) 435 records per second. A little more math gives us another 265,392 seconds to go, or 3 days, 1 hour, 43 minutes left.

So, OK then, what's the over-under on this thing finishing before 7pm Monday?

It's just finished station KCKV (Outlaw Field, Clarksville, Tenn.), with another 2,770 stations left to go. Because it's going in alphabetical order, this means it's finished all of the Pacific Islands (A stations), Northern Europe (B and E), Canada (C), Africa (D, F, G, H). There are no I or J stations (at least not on Earth). K is by far the largest swath as it encompasses all of the continental US, which has more airports than any other land mass.

Once it finishes the continental US, it'll have only 38 million left to do! Whee!
