Mayf:
SCTA has a wonderful stand alone weather station from
http://www.davisnet.com Davis Instruments from Harward,CA. Its the
wireless model I believe called the "Vantage Pro" I'm sure Glen would let
you get readings several times a day. Its placed right near his "Mobile
Estates" timing trailer. Just don't drive over his timing wire!LOL Good
Luck Mayf, hope to see 'ya on the salt. And bring the entire Pahrump
cheering section along,that means you too Dale!
