About 1/2 mile west it poured. None here yet.

My educated guess is about 300' AGL, and that may be high.

Does it sway in the wind?

If you have a fence you could bolt it on with clamps. That is what I did. Here is my favorite pic of my Vue.

Nice pic! Hmm only problem is that one fence is right beside wind tunnel (between two houses) other is right under tree and other is pretty close to a tree.

You gotta like Steve's (DaculaWeather) video of his Vue in the snow:
