This should sum up my weather.

Here's a link to my weather station on WU. http://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KTXMCKIN27#current

I really like my davis, yours looks just like mine, but I don't have the solar/uv index

 

[FountainMan]

I initially bought the non-plus VP2 but added the solar radiation in 2011 and then bought the UV sensor last year. Thinking of adding a temperature station with stainless probe to monitor the pond temperature. I also added Davis's leaf/soil station. For the vegetables. I use the data to monitor the garden. Solar data allows the console to calculate Evapotranspiration which I find useful in evaluating the pond's evaporation. So the VP2 helps me know what water is lost.

Weather watching is a side hobby of mine. I get carried away on threads like this.

A picture of the VP2 outdoor station. Note the anemometer was replaced with an NRG/ Maximum high performance industrial grade anemometer and vane using Davis's universal anemometer interface.

Pond temperature coming soon.

Neat idea, about the stainless probe, I will look into that. I really like the VP2. ummmmmmmmmmm mine is installed on a old piece of pipe. That is one sweet set up!

I will look into the probe, that is one that would not die. Is it hard wired to the station? I do have mine as wireless to the house.

The probe comes with a wireless transmitter. Just make sure you set the station ID number in the configuration so that the wireless transmitter is received. Eg. Station #2 TEMP.

I buy my stuff from these guys.

Thanks, a new project! I absolutely love watching the weather. Have a weather station at every house I have lived at. I have my station loading to find u, one neat feature is a doppler map of the storm coming. My sweetie has learned I am pretty good at predicting if that storm will actual hit us by the way it is advancing.

I too send to Findu. Aka CWOP. I use Weather Display 10.37 to handle all the data. Also plots everything out and gives detailed information. Some other sites I send to are Weather Bug, PWS weather, and AWEKAS. I'm thinking of installing a temperature probe in my pond. Weather and gardening go together.

I just tune into the weather channel and watch that, but it is good to know how low the air pressure is, right at your location. I have the old fashion type, if the water goes up the spout and that means storm coming.
Getting cooler and windy now, temperture now about 63 F (+17 Celsius)
