Man buys weather station; gets national news coverage
In article ,
hungerdunger writes: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...et-Office.html Am I missing something here? This man has bought a Davis Vantage Pro and is using "Weather Underground" software, as are many other people in the UK, yet this appears to qualify him for a piece in the Daily Mail, and five minutes on Radio 5's evening news programme (at about 6.50 if anyone can be bothered to Listen Again). snip It featured in the Daily Telegraph too. It doesn't say much for their degree of knowledge of online weather stations that they thought that this was news. I guess that the owner is a shrewd self-publicist and that they took what he said at face value. -- John Hall "I don't even butter my bread; I consider that cooking." Katherine Cebrian |
