HI TM, Thanks for the information,the area I was working was maybe 100metres lower and surrounded by trees and about 4km from my site as the crow flies,so plenty of differances,Ive got a maximum gust rfeading today of 28.2mph which seems about right.The station gives out readings at 48 second intervals its my first serious weather station although it wont be as proffesional as some of you guys are used to ,but it will do me as a first step until I get a more serious one hopefully next year. Regards Les.

HI Cookie, My site is 210 metres but I have my wind meter on top of a home made mast (made from a old extending aluminium tree lopper) at about 12' high,this is to avoid shelter from my hut and a small conifer tree. Regards Les.

HI Weatherteers, Ive had my first ever weather station for almost two weeks now and Im very pleased with it,however today I have a recorded wind gust reading of 25.1mph.Im sure it was not that windy today as I was only working a couple of miles down the road and was raking leaves so I think I would of noticed a wind of that stength.Could it be a rogue reading ,if so how often can they occur.The station was only £60 but seems good enough quality. Regards Les.

HI There, Its strange sometimes when science and the paranormal meet.Quite often when Ball Lightning is obseved it seems to act as if its alive or controlled by some intelligence, there are accounts of BL entering houses wandering around the sittingroom then preceeding to float the stairs and exit by a bedroom window or dissapear up the chimney. Will O The Wisp or Jack O Lantern has been know to taunt witnesses by keeping its distance when followed,then approach when they try to wander away.This mischievous almost poltergeist behavour can sometimes extent to more comman weather phenonomen like when lightning knocked out the BBC Weather Centres computer and back in the 70's when the Edinburgh University Weather Department was struck with a bolt of lightning melting a neat hole through a window pane.Not to mention fish and frog falls,and the time a giant hailstone fell in the USA with a Carp inside!Someone up there has a sense of humour! Regards Les.

HI Snowkissed, Ive managed to set up my gallery and download my orb images onto it.In the full size image the orb is just above and to the left of the dogs head.The images are not as clear as Id like due to resizing.If you still want the prints that should be clearer let me know. Regards Les. PS, Incidently the image was taken on the 23rd January 2006,near the old gunpowder mill Roslin Glen.The camera was a 4mp CONCORD 4340z compact.Weather was dull but no flash.
