Joe Clark Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I've spent several years following this forum and appreciate all the work that many of you do. Need some advice: I am looking to purchase an entry level home weather station. Do any of you have any product recommendations? What about advice as far as placement? What considerations should I take in to account in order to get fairly accurate readings? Thanks for your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think you live in another climate zone or something check wunderground and see all the other local stations within 5 miles of you and just pretend its yours. Enjoy your weather its the only weather you got, getting a piece of china plastic won't change it unless you are tampering with the atmosphere and that is illegal at least in Guilford County.

Wow.He didn't ask for your personal philosophical reasoning over why his purchase was wrong.Now, to the posters question: I have owned a Davis Vantage Vue for several years and have been very happy with the purchase.

NCWX Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Has there ever been a snow event that ended up coating a very large amount of the south east in considerable amounts of snow? From the coast to the mountains? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a rough estimate of the cost, but it's still the entry-level model. I wasn't even considering the $20 - $30 temperature gauges that you can purchase, but you may have better interpreted his request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Well, after a break from the last storm I am starting to follow things again. Didn't get as much snow as advertised with the last storm, but it was still a solid storm with sleet and snow, enough to cause problems on the roads for a few days. Kind of frustrating to see all the models in pretty good agreement for at least 6 inches of snow here, though, and it end up being a little too warm. That's why I say the best they can show is a possibility when it comes to winter storms here. How much we actually get is just a guess. Not sure I will be as active as I used to be because they are cracking down on people using the Internet at work. Been there 14 years and never had a problem getting my work done. Not my fault my brain works differently and I am smart enough to actually get my work done and can read something online at the same time. Funny thing is my manager used to ask me for updates whenever there is a potential winter storm. It's silly how some see using the Internet at work as wasting time worse than others who take smoke breaks all day or walk around and chat all day long. Anyway, looks like things start get interesting again by the beginning of next week headed to the end of the month. I saw Greg Fishel from WRAL posted on Facebook yesterday about a possible noreaster. I think we'll have another shot at a winter storm here before the end of the month.
