Rain then showers. Moderate or good.

I can download data to the computer for more detail later, but according to the console, it says that wind peaked a gust of 57mph las night here at the foot of Mt Malvern.

Nice one Stoner. I've got a standalone anemometer mounted on one of the outbuildings that used to hook into an old pc in my office using a game controller card. Each rotation of the cups was a button click and I wrote a little program in VB that counted the clicks per minute and turned that into a windspeed then drew a graph - which was fun.
Unfortunately that pc died and I lost the app and can't be bothered writng the app again!
Mum has a wireless Oregon Scientific weather station that she doesn't want and would be cool but unfortunately its a model that doesn't link to a PC 🙁

well Im having trouble getting this to store and release data. It says it can hold 175 data points (which is not a lot) but every tie I plug it in it just shows the current data point in the log 🙁

manual and help notes are shit.

might need to email manufacturer or get on the forums...

Ahh we bought four anemometer's from a chap in West Sussex. Mounted them on and around the Sailing Club. We rely on CHimet and Cambermet too much so bought these fellas, nifty bit of kit they are.

Anywhoos it's rather quiet on the Coast, 15knts Westerly, 15C.
