I was wondering if anyone has photo's of their weather sensors setup, as I am interested in different views on how and where people locate them, as I am thinking of updating to a VP2.
Cheers
Brian

Re: Weather Station Sensors
Brian,
Don't know if my photos will help. The ISS is on a pole about 5 feet up in a small back garden. Near to a SW facing fence but above it.
The anemometer is around 6-8ft above the roof line attached to a chimney. The photos on my website may help.

Re: Weather Station Sensors
This photo is out of date but gives the general idea.
This photo shows the wind sensors at the top of a 20ft mast with the temperature/humidity
sensor and transmitter unit on a shorter post about 5ft high with my own Stevenson screen.
The circular screen shown here was later replaced by a more traditional rectangular type.
The rain gauge is lower still at a couple of feet above ground inside my own rain collection
system.

Sorry, no banner - weather station out of action. Hoping to be up and running with a new home-made one soon.
