Weather Instruments

Here is my array of weather instruments that allows me to keep track of the weather in my part of Clybucca. The rain guage is very tricky. The collector sits on the verandah railing and transmits the rainfall readings to the receiver which is inside the house. The receiver keeps track of daily and accumulative rainfall for nine days. No rain to report so far but it does work. I tipped water into it to simulate rain! The weather station on the kitchen wall allows me to determine the settings for the reverse cycle air conditioner: above 30, I cool, below 20, I heat. There are three dials showing humidity, air pressure and temperature. the minimum/maximum thermometer is on a verandah post in the shade.
