Watching the Weather


FSC Preston Montford has been watching the official weather for the Met Office for over 30 years.

Now we are trying out some automated weather stations. The image shows the latest version which is attached to the Courtyard  fence, this monitors the weather continuously feeding the results into a spreadsheet. We intend to link this to some work on micro-climates with A-level Geography students.
We know it isn't in the best site but it is in operation collecting some data.
