Post by: JennyLeez on September 15, 2013, 05:14:13 PM
How high is your Weather Station Sensor.
Who has the highest above sea level.
Who has the lowest.
What is the dominant height.

Select your height above and lets see how the Stats pan out.

If you make a mistake, just remove your vote and you will be able to select again.

I'm about 38m ASL. By the way, the poll allows users to select up to 2 options?

Yes correct David, some of our members have 2 stations and hence why 2 selections are allowed.

The above poll surprises me.
13 stations have polled above 100m ASL.
I hope those voting realise the poll is in metres and not feet.

100m = 328ft
150m = 492ft
200m = 656ft

Thats mighty high.
Comments anyone :)

We're between 260m and 270m ASL here, but yes they are surprising results. Depends alot on who answered of course. I can think of a few stations that would fit into that category

Just bumping this back up for those having joined in the last year and not added in their station.

The height of Ohopo Weather Station has prompted this; 182 metres / 600.6 ft.
