英國男子自辦家庭氣象站 |
| Simon Cansick was so fed up with inaccurate television weather forecasts that he decided to set up his own weather station, the Daily Mail reports. The 47-year-old accountant, who lives in the North Yorkshire village of Duggleby, spent ￡1,000 on meteorological equipment, fixed it on his roof and began issuing local weather forecasts on the Internet. His website, www.dugglenet.org, offers predictions for the next 24 hours and is automatically updated every three seconds. It is so accurate that everyone in the village gets the latest forecast from dugglenet.org rather than the UK's national weather service. |
