Dear WeatherCat fans,
Our frequent contributor to the MacWeather.net (http://www.macweather.net/) and WeatherCat forum: Steve Morris has been sharing with us his experiences with the portable weather instrument the: Kestrel 4500 (http://www.nkhome.com/kestrel/) at this MacWeather.net forum discussion: http://www.macweather.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=534 (http://www.macweather.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=534). As Steve describes in his initial posting there, not only does the Kestrel 4500 have some amazing capacity to measure weather like windspeed, you can even download this data to a computer.
I just added a new reply to this topic asking how one might use data collected say while traveling to your collection computerized weather readings. It is rather fanciful, but there are a number of WeatherCat fans who enjoy the great outdoors including Stu himself. If the outdoor adventurers among us were to have a portable weather instrument like the Kestrel, would you like to have something like a WeatherCat, camping edition? If so, what would such a version of WeatherCat do?
Since this is mostly "armchair philosophizing" perhaps it is best to keep this discussion on MacWeather (http://www.macweather.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=534). However, I do encourage folks to express their thoughts about this - especially since it mostly daydreaming anyway! [sleep]
