Hello, I was wondering how people in the weewx user community mounted their anemometers.
I currently have a Vantage Vue mounted on a fence about 20 ft from my my house (best I can do), it is also about 10 ft above the ground. I just started publishing to Weather Underground and discovered that my data is off - most of the stations in the area are around 270 degrees, mine has values all over the place but it seems to center around 120 degrees. There is a blank spot around 270 degrees on mine that just didn't make sense. Sadly my region is rather hilly and populated area and the "blank" spot concedes with the "channel" between the house and the hill for the wind to travel. Though it seemed unlikely until now this was the cause. Since its a Vue I'll have to change the battery but I'm tempted to mount a separate anemometer and station to try to get more accurate updates. Hoping to start a thread here on how people mounted and installed their stations. In addition, would be interesting to see how you resolved issues in relation to accuracy. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
