I Got A Weather Station :-)

[matthew2riches]

Someone bought me a weather station for Christmas.

It's got all spinny bits and flappy parts that go outside and a thing that goes inside and another bit that goes into the computer.

I'm going to set it up in the new year as I'll put the outdoor bit on our transmission tower and I don't fancy climbing it until the new year and beer is out the way

Anyone else got one?

Had one, but don't use it anymore, must get it sold on ebay, thinking about it.
What did you get? It's well worth reading up on the one you have before you set it up, as it has to be put in the right place and the right way. Also some stations have idiosyncrasies that need to be sorted when setting up.

You just want me to get it out the box before new year and see me go up a ladder

[womble]

Hardly I just told you to read about it before setting it up.

I've opened the box And read the instructions

The outdoor parts need to be mounted in a place where there is NO shelter. Well that's easy enough. Where I first said... Up the mast.

I'll pop up a photo in the new year.

Hi Matthew, Carol the Carrot has been given one of these for Christmas, you can compare notes, or maybe she needs someone to climb for her?

I got one as well, doesnt have a bit that goes into computer but has outside remote with spinny things and bit that hangs on the wall indoors with all the readings.
Its quite fascinating really

You two can be the Vine Meteorologists, especially as you are so geographically spaced out!
