Bell Hill Wessex

05:31-21:00 (BST)
This weather station is mounted behind the take off area, clear of any obstacles.
Readings within a 90 degree arc should be reliable for top end wind strength.
Readings from SW backing to East will not be reliable but they are well outside the range for flying this site.
Ideally located for Bell, useful for Telegraph and Bullbarrow. Helpful for Monksdown, Whitesheet and Winklebury, but another station is based at Whitesheet.
During the winter season the camera will operate every hour and 20 mins during the summer.
