I think there's a "No Wind" dome over my wind gauge...

It is really hard for PWSs to get wind right. Remember, ASOS anemometers are at 10m (33ft) and wide open. I have mine on my roof and it has gusted to 33 mph through the trees despite obvious 50+ gusts.

Sitting at 470ft with 100'+ trees is a little scary. Just out with the dog and made sure to stay on the more open side of the street.

Absolutely. Mine is in an open area and is only showing 34 mph wind gusts. Winds are much higher than that though.
