You could always train the sheep to walk up and down in straight lines whilst chomping away!

No problem to an electric hover mower, mine hovers over water just as well as over the grass.
PS Thanks for adding wind direction.

Well I got a reply;
Unfortunately we don't have specific directions on how to do this for the various software/hardware combinations that are used on our site, but if you have a datalogger, it should be possible. You probably need to change a setting in your software configurations.
A typically useful reply!

That's what the parameters in the WL DLL allowed you to do. In the meantime Keith why not leave your PC running 24/7? Is it a power-hungry desktop or less hungry laptop? With the monitor off power consumption may not be too bad. How will you feel when we get a powerful overnight storm and you can't upload any data to WU?

I guess that's a reply for a 'user' rather than a 'developer'. But the implication is that it should work.

Yes, quite agree. Maybe you could contact them, on a developer level?
