About Us

This website provides an ever changing source of information for Crondall, Farnham and the surrounding areas. As well as the live weather update an ever increasing directory of local tradesmen, firms and services is supplied. For details on advertising on the site please click here and if you wish to link to us then please click here.

The raw live weather is supplied by a Davis Vantage Pro2 weather system, which is acknowledged as being one of the World's leading systems.  Crondall Weather Station - Anemometer - Image The site went live towards the end of January 2006 so it will take a bit of time for full comparative data to be built up, although we do try and provide comparisons to the 30 year averages  wherever possible.

Crondall Weather Station Anemometer - ImageThe anemometer is mounted above the roof line to give an unimpeded measurement of the wind. Similarly the rainfall collector and temperature / humidity  / pressure measuring system is properly shielded and sited away from any major structures.  The reading should therefore be very accurate (although no guarantees or warranties can of course be given).

If you are interested in the technical specifications of the equipment then please Crondall Weather Station - Rainfall collector - Imagepop over to the actual Davis Weather site by  clicking here.

In any regard I've listed below a summary of the key items that are being measured and the official tolerance thresholds. 

In looking at this data please note that these are true measurement accuracy figures and should not be confused with display resolution figures, which may be all that are quoted for some other makes of stations but which in reality have little or no relevance to accuracy and are often wildly optimistic relative to true accuracy specifications.
