Everybody Talks About the Weather...

But there's not a darn thing we can do about it.  Anyway, here's your chance to talk about weather, recreation, local events, and almost any other subject of local interest.   Please be respectful; no name-calling.  For name-calling, politics, and other such disrespectful (but fun) topics, there's Talk of the Gorge.

Previous 2 Weeks Wind Speed (Red) and Barometric Pressure (Blue)

Past 2 Weeks Wind Speed (Red) and Barometric (Blue)

The wind speed at the weather station (1/2 mile south of Wal-Mart) is considerably lower than the wind speed on the Columbia River.  When the west wind is blowing, add 10 to 20 mph for on-river conditions!

Disclaimer:  My legal team (if I had one) insists that you should not rely on this weather data for anything in particular.  This is just a personal weather station and is not guaranteed to be interesting, reliable, accurate, or anything else. 

Regarding accuracy, the temperature sensor is calibrated to NIST standards.  The other sensors are monitored for errors or unreasonable data.  Wind speeds at this location are lower than other locations in the area (especially on the Columbia River).
