Looking forward using while doing HAM radio

Took this with me to a local fair that had predicted showers in the area but there was no lighting in the area. I will carry this with me when ever we are out and the weather is prdeicted to have storms looming. Will be a great tool to have when doing HAM radio in the field.

Excellent sensor!

The only check I have is the local weather forecast and observations, but this thing appears to be dead on.
