Site Description
The station is comprised of an anemometer, a wind vane, a rain gauge and a thermo-hydro sensor situated in optimal positions for the highest accuracy possible (though rainfall amounts can underead in high winds). The station is mounted using a 5 meter pole which is held in place using guy ropes and a Davis Mounting Tripod. The station's elevation is 71 m and the coordinates for the station are 50.70189285, -3.30849957.
Additional Information
Note: The anemometer is sheltered from the WNW, NW, NNW, N and NNE, so reported wind speeds will be lower than actual from that direction.
