Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
Waiting for the weather to hit over on the west side
Only wind as the rain gauge is not working
Hope you come through ok!
What weather station do you have? It’s something I’ve been wanting to get for a while.
I hope we dont get the rain that we got last month, they estimate we had 300-400mm in the hills above our local water catchment and it wiped out the Reservoir.
The weather station is all DIY built around ESP boards, some temp probes and BGT-W815S pro. I scored for free, as only the wind speed/direction is working, the temp/pressure and rain all seem to supply corrupted data
Oh nice! I’ve been wanting some fancy thing like this: https://ambientweather.com/ws-5000-ultrasonic-smart-weather-station
But that’s the most expensive one. The cheapest is about $150 USD. But I have trouble buying a cheap one when the expensive ones have so much more, but the expensive ones are too expensive 😆. Also I don’t have anywhere to put it anyway. Not that keen on a pole in the middle of the lawn.
