handheld anomometers

[Dean Baron]

just looking for some advice as to what types of anomometers are good and which ones to say away from. i was looking into buying one last year but never did. price range: $80-$120. thanks!

Consider how you are going to use it first. I had a handheld one but always found myself getting rained on when I wanted to read the wind speed. So I got a car mounted cup one with a display inside the car.

i suppose it would be pretty hard not to get rain on it. i didnt think about that. but i was thinking about using it for taking inflow measurements while out chasing next summer, otherwise, downburst winds or outflow winds. i really dont think i'm going to get a mounted one on my car because when i'm chasing im not chasing in my car, i'm chasing with someone else riding in their car.
