We are looking for a good place to get a hand held anemometer. Any suggestions?

After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.
I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.
For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.
From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.
Sincerely, Jeff D.

Kestrel 3000 seems to be the standard, which measures wind, temperature and dewpoint I've seen them for about $129 shipped. Was thinking of purchasing one myself. A Google search will yield many places to get them.

I originally had the Kestrel 2000, which I enjoyed so much that I followed it up with the 3500. Just make sure you're pointing into the wind!

You can find 'em at pretty decent prices at West Marine. I bought mine while on vacation in Florida a few years back. Hurricane Francis was heading our way so I decided to pick one up.

I have been after getting one of these for some time. However, being UK based they cost twice as much over here. Obviously I am tempted by the US prices but a lot of US companies don't send to the UK, and if they do I get stung for import tax.
So does anyone know where I could buy one of these (a Kestrel) in a shop (ie not on the internet) somewhere in the Plains, as I will be over chasing from May 19. Last year we tried Gander Mountain but they didn't have anything (although they did have lots and lots of guns and knives which is quite shocking for a Brit!)

Helen, here's the website of the manufacturer: http://www.nkhome.com/ . You can look for dealers in the state(s) you expect to be in when you come. I bought my 3000 for instance at a "Cabelas" (a sporting goods store) a while ago in North Dakota. You can also e-mail ahead of time to the store in question to see if they have what you want in stock.

Cheers - I might try that as we will be going wherever the storms take us! It's difficult trying to work out who sells what in what stores sometimes.

Helen - I have sent you a PM regaring a great eBay shop that I brought a Kestral 4000 from in the last week.
