Yes, you will have to drill holes in the wall to run cables, and the best place for the sensor is on top of your roof, clear of anything that could block wind, like a chimney or tall surrounding trees. If you have any other questions, please reach out to our customer service team sales@maximum-inc.com or (508) 995-2200

Interested in a wind instrument. How do you place it and the cables so it works best. Do I need to drill holes in wall to connect and where is best place for sensors to be located.

I have a spinal cord injury at c5, a severed nerve. This paralyzed my left arm. I live at sea level in the PNW Wa. Rising air pressure causes extreme stabbing in my elbow . I used to live in the desert of S. Idaho at 3000 feet elevation and changing air pressure caused migraines.

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia (now designated ME/CFS AND GETS SOME ACTUAL CDC+ funding). That was 20 years ago. I’m now 75. Don’t ask a doctor, but my symptoms are better or worse in direct proportion to the ups and downs of barometric pressure. Maybe with equipment better than my century- old device—yes! It has the eponymous environmental hazard on board—you can see a forecast. For us with ME/CFS, the weather news is sufficient evidence to educate naysayers (“You’re not sick, you’re crazy” or similar).
Sadly, if you ask “how up is up, how down is down,” my honest answer is, “a f*ck load more than the mercury. One summer afternoon and 60035, I literally left from my chair. My colleague said arek if I were OK. Without missing a beat, I told him to get in his car, there was a tornado coming. (He was tasked with carpool later that day.). I’ve lived in. 60035 half of my life. Because of the shape and height of the brae on that part of the Lake Michigan shoreline, I don’t recall more than a handful of warnings. That day, the funnel came to call but never touched down. In a different part of the city, my son watched the spiral roll past his picture window. My colleagues kid was safe and sound, and I had such a headache.

Modern car engine management systems use a MAP sensor. An acronym, it measures ‘manifold absolute ressure’ meaning it takes into account the atmospheric pressure and the mostly negative pressure the engine creates as it draws in air to burn the fuel.
A remarkably sensitive part, a MAP sensor can usefully measure changes as little as .001% of one Bar.
And yet the large car makers pay just over $2 per sensor.
Such fine sensitivity is required to determine the precise quantity of fuel to inject to satisfy the catalytic converter in order to do its work.
We really do live in extraordinary times.
I too have been an obsessive barometer watcher since 1970!

Very useful information. Always have migraines with change in barometric change. Walking weather predictor. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve been interested in atmospheric pressure since I began reading about hurricanes during the 2004 season. I have to say, I’m annoyed that inHg somehow persists as the default unit of barometric pressure in the U.S. Many younger people, including myself, are more familiar with millibars, or hectopascals. News reports favor millibars when reporting on tropical cyclones and severe weather. It’s ridiculous that inHg seems to be favored by many websites and local news stations.

Comment on What is a Rain Gauge? Types, Use Cases, and Why They Matter by Brandi J. Wells

This article provides valuable insights on what to consider when choosing a home weather station. The eight factors mentioned, such as functions, accuracy, display, remote access, durability, expandability, ease of use, and appearance, are all important factors to keep in mind while making a decision. I appreciate the emphasis on having a clear display and the option for remote access, as these features add convenience to monitoring weather conditions. The mention of durability and expandability is also crucial for ensuring a long-lasting and versatile home weather station. Overall, this article offers comprehensive guidance for selecting the perfect weather station for any home.

I have been a follower of Barometric pressure ever since the age of about 10 yrs old. I tend to read my three barometers every hour more if the clouds appear to be moving in different directions. I have always liked to track weather. I currently live in PA 18951. I would normally expect a current reading of 30.00 to be extremely fair conditions. But if falling 5 points per hour down to 29.1 as it did today 3/30/2023. I would be on the look out for thunderstorms but not always the case. It is just heavy continuously raining.
I love storms during Cold Core storms like Sandy can produce extremely bad weather. Sandy took my weather instruments never to be found even though they survived severe thunder storms. Even in Germany 1967 and Vietnam 1968 to1970 I was able to tell of changing conditions with my headaches.
