This site and station are my personal 'hobby' and are hosted at my work location
by Networx Corp.
Bushnell's Basin weather station began operation 07/14/07.
The instruments for basic weather measurements are located in the 'back yard' of our
building on a pole approximately 8 ft. above grass covered ground. The Boltek lightning
detector is on a PVC pipe extending above the pole at approx. 15 ft. above ground.
Wind instruments are on the building roof approx 35 - 40 ft. above ground level
and send data to the ground station via a wireless connection.
The station is powered by a Davis Vantage Pro2 weather station with daytime fan-aspirated radiation shield.
The rain collector is equipped with a cold weather heater unit so winter precipitation is melted snow/ice equivalent.
The station includes an anemometer, rain gauge and a thermo-hydro sensor, and a Boltek Stormtracker lightning detection
system with Astrogenic Systems Nexstorm software.Data is collected every 5 seconds and the site is updated every
10 minutes. Dynamic realtime data updates every5 seconds thanks to some nifty Ajax scripts
from Ken at saratoga-weather.org.
This site runs using Brian Hamilton's amazing Weather Display software.
