Station Upgrade (After 6yrs)
« on: May 15, 2019, 05:37:50 PM »
Finally was able to upgrade my station after 6yrs.
From a Davis Vantage Vue to a Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus +FARS.
Also added a Purpleair Sensor.

Nicely sat. That bucket looks to be up there, cleaning may be a bit of a pain.

Very good. If it helps, for myself, my RW bucket is just above my unaided sight line so I use a hand held mirror to look into it.

Very nice. How tall is that? About 20 feet it seems I'm guessing?

Love it!
I live in an apartment and for the moment am not a home weather watcher.

I am a storm chaser.
