dendrite Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I've been playing around with a Sensirion SHT75 sensor in my Davis VP2. If you wire it correctly, it's plug and play with the VP2 temp/hum sensor (Davis uses Sensirion too). The difference is, the SHT75 comes with pins on a tiny PCB with the 10K pull up resistor already attached. I found an appropriate connector and can now just swap out the sensors if one fails. They're being discontinued, but I gobbled a few up for when they fail. They're only ~$30 each...so cheaper than the Davis temp/hum. I get insane response with this combined with my 40 CFM FARS fan. I almost need 5 minute running averages like ASOS. There's way less thermal mass compared to the Davis sensor. When the temp budges, you instantly see it on the console. This thing actually hits 100% RH too whereas my Davis one was getting stuck in the mid 90s. I think it does a better job on the lower side with daytime RH too. I really need some windy days to tell for sure though. These 5-10mph days with swampy ground let the moisture pool up near the surface. Here's the SHT75 next to a Davis temp/hum sensor.

Give me hot sun any day over cloudy swampazz. I doubt I hit 90, but should be close. Good pool weather at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I've been reading through some of the local town history books recently. I found a nice summary of 1816-1817 in the Boscawen-Webster one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimetree Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Interesting description of "frosty land" and "warm land" and impact to crop yields. I can only assume that's referring to valleys vs. highlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have friends in that area at higher elevation who get warmer than MPM. Something about the topography in his neighborhood keeps it cooler but driving around up there I haven't figured out quite what it could be. Maybe the way prevailing winds move throug that particular area of Shelburne? There are no nearby rivers to speak of and he is not really in a cold glen or hollow.

weatherwiz Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Does anyone know how to stop a web page from auto-refreshing? The SPC site does it constantly and it's a bit annoying. Trying to write down dates from the Storm Events page and every couple minutes it refreshes and I have to input all the information again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modfan Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 This forum is stocked with craft beer lovers; as most know the Main St area of Webster was hit hard by the tornado and it affected many businesses beyond the 3 buildings the news has shown. One of those businesses affected was Kretschmann Brewery. The brewery had their outside tented area destroyed by the tornado; but the inside portion is ok. Maybe the craft beer afisciando's here could have an impromptu GTG here to help support a local business. While it's not the biggest of places their beers are pretty good.
