The unfortunate thing is, I don’t really have a place to put it for wind without it being right on the public fence, and being on a 20 foot pole to be the same height as this. It’s sheltered by the house from the east and will get a wind tunnel effect from between the houses, but other than that it should be ideal here.
It doesn't work with snow too does it?
No I don’t think so, is there an electronic sensor for that?
I know you can do a rough calculation for a foot of snow being about an inch of precipitation, but snow can vary in densities as well. So would they melt and do the inverse or would it just be an optical sensor and a tube?
Now I’m curious and my look up an electric snow gauge later!
