Bruce, honey ... could you send me that cockpit shot? I think my boss would love it.

Yes, I know you probably sent it to me already, but since my inbox got hosed, I have no idea what I have and what I haven't.

xoxoxoBruce · 12-30-2006, 10:10 AM

Of course, Mistress Wolf. Your wish is my command.....I don't want to be a newt.

She said "cockpit shot".

Uh...yeah....I'm gonna have to report you to military intelligence. The information contained in that photo is classified.

Wow, that's a nice setup Elspode. I'm certainly envious although my $ will be going to a computer upgrade :\

LOL @ the weather rock. We had those growing up

Elspode · 12-30-2006, 07:42 PM

I'm going to pimp for The Weather Underground and their network of PWS's all over the world.

Cool community...sort of like a Myspace for Weather junkies. $10 a year reg gets you everything they have to offer, which is quite a bit.

Here's the anemometer, mounted to a 4.5' 1" rigid conduit pole, awaiting someone with a 30' ladder and bigger balls than mine to come and attach it to my house.

skysidhe · 12-30-2006, 11:40 PM

webshots, It's huge...I have a big screen and this photo is breath taking. I shrunk it up in order to post it. It lost something. ...It's skinny..It should be wider.
LOl....I love that wallpaper bruce! You have the original link for that too!I know a guy that would find that a hoot.
I like the baby feet too but I don't want to go there. :P Oh and the weather underground widget is cool too.

Elspode · 12-31-2006, 05:57 PM

Not yet, but I did install the thermohygrometer, so I can now display indoor and outdoor temps and humidity, as well as barometric pressure. I may put up the rain bucket tomorrow, and then have my gutter superintendent come by after work this week to install the anemometer. It is by far the most difficult and critical part of the installation. It is 20' in the air, it must be perfectly perpendicular to the ground, and it must be precisely oriented in a specific direction in order to have the wind direction read out correctly.

If UT still allowed html, I could post my readings here in my sig line...

My, what pretty words. *cue Sesame Street's "One of these things is not like the others"* The word you're looking for is "pluviometer". [/snark]

Elspode · 01-03-2007, 01:41 PM

Hey, I got all those words out of the instructions. Its not like I actually *knew* them or anything...

Seriously, I'm glad I now know what the goomer what measures the rain is actually called.
