Since I got my WS-5000 weatherstation I have been doing comparison on temps against my other Accu rite weatherstation. I have both within 5 feet of each other. I'm impressed with the sensitivity on the temps, wind and humidity dewpoint etc. on the WS-5000. The Accu Rite is mounted about 6 foot above the ground, the WS-5000 is mounted above the ground at 9 foot (to catch the wind better) I know I have never seen a gust above 24mph on the accu rite since I had it about 3 years. Both are within a degree or less of each other most of the time with the ws-5000 sometimes reading higher in temps. But the wind is imo picked up and I think more accurate then the Accu rite. Also the humidity is accurate on the ws-5000. The Accu rite transmits in about every 15 seconds vs the WS-5000 that transmits in less then 5 seconds. I'm happy with the WS-5000. So bring on summer and lets see those high temp reading that I will get.
