famartin Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Does anyone know if it's possible to 'calibrate' the dewpoint on the Davis? I see in the manual you can appy an offset to temperature based on a calibrated (with the bowl of crushed ice I guess) thermometer. Haven't done it yet, but I plan to do it with the indoor temp that seems to run 4 degrees too high. Outside might be a degree or so too low. My sensor is at 30' with the anenometer and usually runs a little lower than my 2m non-Davis thermo that's usually pretty accurate - i.e. rain starts to freeze at about 31.8. Standard thermometer height is near 2 meters, so I'm not surprised yours runs a bit cool way up near 10 meters. You probably saw the method I used to get my wind sensor way above the rest of my Davis Vantage Pro 2 equipment (the telephone pole in Jersey, the flagpole here in Elko). As far as calibrating the instrument, Davis VP2 actually measures RH directly and calculates dew point based on temperature, RH and pressure. Instructions are on page 28, I believe: http://www.davisnet.com/product_documents/weather/manuals/07395-234_IM_06312.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tombo82685 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I don't get why people want to chase linear storms in populated areas with hilly and forested terrain. In the philly area i can see...parts of s jerz or out in chester county where its rural and limited spotters are around its good to have people around to report damage and what not to help the people at the nws. But i dont get why you need 5 cameras and tripods to do so.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaoPos Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Why you wanna join? nor do i get why you need 5 cameras and tripods to do so.... Nope.... Only thing I'll chase is a tornado potential. Plus, I'm in the middle of a 48hr shift. 5 cameras = bigger field of vision so you can not only get the trees on your left, but the shopping center on your right!

Sunny and Warm Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 "only" 80/69 here. That would be a pleasant morning down here. Dews rarely drop much below 80 in summer, and average high away from the beaches is 90 or 91. Just like anything else, you get used to it pretty quickly. Can't wait to come up tomorrow though and enjoy the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny and Warm Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 So is this lock n load for Friday? Does the Euro agreee with the NAM? From those images, it appears the best forcing slides south and west of Philly Friday morning, and especially the LV. Harrisburg to Lancaster seem to be the sweeter spot.
