Friday, November 5th, 2010 1:47pm CDTThe PlanoWeather.com anemometer has been relocated to a location ideal for recording accurate wind measurements. The previous sitting was at a height of 12 feet and was impacted by obstructions common to a suburban location.
Upon relocation, we immediately began seeing accurate wind readings. You can see in the below graph that average wind speeds more than doubled and wind direction has stabilized.
The new installation location was achieved with the addition of a solar powered wireless transmitter and mounting pole.
PlanoWeather.com will continue to make improvements whenever or wherever possible to ensure the most accurate recording and reporting of weather data.
Stay tuned!
