Someone with your talent could have made a decent photo out of it I’m guessing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishRob17 Posted November 7, 2021 Author Share Posted November 7, 2021 I swapped out the tipping bucket with a tipping spoon on the VP2 this morning. The buckets seem to need adjustment from time to time for some reason but when I had the spoon in the Vantage Vue I had zero issues and never had to adjust anything. I also decided to pulled apart the radiation shield and give that a good cleaning…it’s amazing how many different spots spiders will nest in a weather station… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the bare patches in my yard just under the canopies of trees that still have their leaves. Presumably they're acting like a blanket to prevent radiation? 3 hours ago, IrishRob17 said: I swapped out the tipping bucket with a tipping spoon on the VP2 this morning.

There were some events where the precip totals varied in this region and my numbers were in accordance of others in those instances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t wildly off in comparison to the Stratus but you know how I am with my measurements LOL. The silver coating in one of the buckets started to wear off so that prompted the change more than anything. I had to adjust the buckets in my old Weather Monitor too but never the spoon in the Vantage Vue so we’ll see how the spoon does now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see NWS Albany confirmed an EF1 on Friday in your neck of the woods. That really caught me by surprise when I saw the survey results. I wish I had some good velocity scans from around the time when it occurred... I knew it was a potent squall line, just had no reason at all to suspect tornadic activity. No big disruptions at home thankfully but that's definitely a close shave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good trends today. Keep it going until it's a quick fropa. On another note, now at the latest without flakes or measurable snow since 2015-16. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
