uh.... what page is that you're referring to?

Thanks Doggie Daddy. I think that page is underutilized, and a lot of people don't know it exists!

Not that it needs mentioning in in this group. But there's always detailed local conditions at Bensweather.

Applenut, that's a great link for local weather at BBCCSD! Their main office weather station is just a few blocks away from our place.
You can also find very localized conditions from private weather stations on Weather Underground.

McToddy,
Yes, I want all of that.

Welp, i found the equipment at the damkeeper's, precipitation gauge only with a nice flat line right at zero...

I have a buddy locally with a big solar array, 9 large panels. not sure on the specs but ive seen it throw a good 2 inch arc right after he put it in. Not sure if he harnessed it, the control technology has come such a long way since he built the thing. Oughta go have a beer and pick his brain a bit...

Im wondering if theres a link to the usgs weather station at the damkeeper's house?

Metcalf; We just use the BBCSD station in Erwin, next to the water tank off hatchery

Metcalf: what are the requirements? Do you want remote/web access? Do you want logging (to monitor historical trends, like when it got the hotest in the day). Im curious about what Doo will have to say

Dr B -- My opinion about 4patriots: it's crap. It's all marketing hype to suck you in, little substance in the goods... much like what MountainArt mentioned earlier about a "battery 'generator'". (I hate dishonest vendors like that.) Very little technical details provided. That aside, one thing to keep in mind: the discharge/recharge rates, and will the "generator" have enough capacity for your needs. Just because Solar is included doesn't mean it will meet your needs as the Solar panels have low/slow recharge capacity. E.g. it won't be enough to recharge your "generator" while its powering a refridgerator.
