Billy has added a new feature to the blog! He has his own weather station in the back yard that updates its information to the internet. The weather data in the gadget to the right is from the live readings in our back yard. Below is a picture of the weather station out back. The anemometer is mounted at the top of that pole for a more accurate wind reading, and the thermometer is inside that accordion-looking thing to prevent the sunshine from tampering with the reading. Above that is the rain gauge.
If you click on the temperature reading, it will take you to a website that shows the data in more detail, including graphs, previous readings, etc. If you're interested, you might also like to check out Billy's weather website at
www.MarylandWx.com. Those of you living in the Baltimore/DC metro area might learn to live or die by his radar feature like I do.
