Highest Daily Wind Run
I think I'll probably hold this one.

Highest Daily Wind Run 1155.9 miles (1860 km) on 22 September 2009

That's equivalent to an average speed of 48 mph (77 kph) for the day.

That will take some beating Steve. Yesterday mine was 0.0 miles, do I get the lowest wind run record? One 0.8mph gust all day - which may have been a bird!

You got me there guys. Steve, your wind speed is amazing! I see your about 59 degree's north, and going by by new book for Father's Day "The Complete book of Australian Weather", it say's that at 40 degree's north (and south), they call the Roaring Fourties due to it's nature of being the windiest. I couldn't imagine it being faster than what you got, or else there wouldn't be any houses there! Ha Ha :lol:

OK, I can beat you with this one Steve:
Lowest Humidity: 10%. It flat lined. I thought I remembered reading the manual saying that it would go from 1% to 99%. But apparantly not. (Official reading at BOM reached 9%)

Had a storm come over today, but silly me hadn't weather proofed my 15 meter extension so as soon as the rain hit I lost all wind speed and direction. Woops. However, it means the dry spell is over and I can put in my Longest Consecutive Dry Period: 161 days.

My Highest Wind Run record has just been broken, now heading to day 6 of constant 30mph + wind speeds, gusts nearing 50mph on some days, and my new record so far today is 567 miles!
