NOTICE OF EQUIPMENT OUTAGE
The La Cumbre Peak wind speed and wind direction failed during one of the recent wind and rain storms. The system will report all other parameters except WS and WD. It appears to be a failure of one of the poly carbonate pieces that holds the 3 wind speed cups in place. One cup broke away causing severe vibration and break up of the unit. Fortunately we have a spare and will get it installed soon as the weather clears. The broken unit may be replaced under warrantee.
Wow! What was the last reported speed before it self-destructed? Scary when it's blowing so hard that the anemometer falls to pieces.
