<p>What exactly is a <a href="https://www.rikasensor.com/rk900-05.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>home weather station</strong></a>? It is when you install a few ambient weather recording devices and equipment in your home to help you record relevant climatic data. Many people are very active about watching and researching various aspects of the environment and the planet on an amateur scale. How and when the various climatic changes occur can be very relevant to the understanding of the planet's weather pattern and the weather shift. Also a number of aviation enthusiasts in America live in sky parks and they prefer to get their own aviation weather data to make their flight plans. All these people use various instruments installed in the homes, backyards and on their roofs to get the data they need.</p><p><br></p><p>The data that they require is very basic and standard. They look for temperature, barometric pressure, wind direction and speed, dew point and precipitation measurements and therefore require the basic instruments for those respectively. The thermometer is the instrument used to measure temperature. But it needs to be installed in the right manner to get the best readings. To get the accurate ambient temperature the thermometer needs to encased in a Stevenson Screen and placed at a height of four feet above the ground. This is to ensure that the instrument is not exposed to direct insolation. The barometer that measures the air pressure needs to be installed in a place that is away from the direct wind as that will corrupt the readings.</p><p><img src="https://img80003232.weyesimg.com/uploads/rikasensor.com/images/15901135567109.jpg?imageView2/2/w/935/q/99/format/webp" alt="RK900-05 Wireless Home Weather Station"></p><p>The dew point is derived from a contraption called the wet-bulb thermometer. This too needs to be kept away from direct sunlight. The wind vane and the anemometer however require to be directly exposed to the wind so as to get the accurate results. These instruments are used to measure the wind direction and speed respectively. The last criterion is the precipitation amount which is derived from an instrument called the rain gauge. This one too needs to be exposed directly to the rainfall without any obstructions or hurdles.</p><p><br></p><p>All the data received from these devices is recorded at regular intervals and transmitted to a portable console. This console makes all the readings readily available to you at the push of a button. This console can also be connected to your computer to save the data so that none of your readings are lost and they can be checked on later when making an analysis.
