Be aware that gust reporting on wunderground is pretty bogus. Everybody uses their own definition of "gust".
Acurite implemented the NWS definition of gust but had to remove it due to popular demand. The NWS definition of gusts declares a minimum speed of 16 knots (about 18.4 mph). This meant no gust marks would show for anything less than a fresh breeze. People were constantly complaining thinking their gear was broken, so Acurite relented.
Ok, thanks, learned something new.
I also see my description wasn't very, well, descriptive.
I'm seeing gust marks on WU but there is no difference between the gust and the regular speed. Is that typical of acurite's reporting of the 5-n-1 or is that something particular to me?
