Weather Stations on Stamps
BKS97:
Two hobbies of mine merged: weather stations and stamp collecting. Here are a few stamps from around the world featuring weather stations from the former Gilbert and Ellice Islands, Portugal, Albania and Namibia respectively. The stamp I use as an avatar is from Sweden.

Thanks for pics of those beautiful stamps.
They all make the emphatic point that heat shielding is absolutely essential.
ValentineWeather:
Yes agree, very nice stamps...I'm glad forums like this exist for those that thought they were alone in there passion or hobby.
BKS97:
Thanks to you both. As you can see, most stamps featuring weather stations depict some version of the Stevenson Screen enclosure. Many other weather-related stamps are issued to honor the World Meteorological Organization, World Meteorological Day, government weather agencies, and weather instruments. —Bill

This is very cool. Thank you for sharing. I was actually born in Sweden and will share your avatar with my dad. He'll get a kick out of it. =D>
