This is the setup that I have, but it is an older model, and being phased out, so I know Selene didn't pay this price for it. Wish it would stop raining so I could find a ladder and get the anemometer mounted. It has to go up first, so I can wire down to the thermohygrometer and the rain bucket.

Holy cow! A you planning on being a contractor for the National weather Service or the Weather Channel?

Guess you don't trust the Weather Rock anymore.

Wow, that's a nice setup Elspode. I'm certainly envious although my $ will be going to a computer upgrade :\

LOL @ the weather rock. We had those growing up

I'm going to pimp for The Weather Underground and their network of PWS's all over the world.

Cool community...sort of like a Myspace for Weather junkies. $10 a year reg gets you everything they have to offer, which is quite a bit.

Here's the anemometer, mounted to a 4.5' 1" rigid conduit pole, awaiting someone with a 30' ladder and bigger balls than mine to come and attach it to my house.

Not yet, but I did install the thermohygrometer, so I can now display indoor and outdoor temps and humidity, as well as barometric pressure. I may put up the rain bucket tomorrow, and then have my gutter superintendent come by after work this week to install the anemometer. It is by far the most difficult and critical part of the installation. It is 20' in the air, it must be perfectly perpendicular to the ground, and it must be precisely oriented in a specific direction in order to have the wind direction read out correctly.

If UT still allowed html, I could post my readings here in my sig line...

That's better Elspode

Nice to see a Mac desktop too.

Here's my notebook; same software with a dizzying background:

If I can't have the weather I want, I can always dream . . .

Elspode · 01-03-2007, 08:25 AM

Unfortunately, my gear only measures what's there. I haven't figured out how to make it produce the weather I want yet.
