Summer can bring episodes of very heavy precipitation, many times associated with tropical disturbances in the southeast portion of the United States. The emergency preparedness folks in North Carolina are well aware of this. The rains of late last summer in that area set records that will last for many years. Spring, also, brings with it the enhanced possibility of those severe weather episodes, be it in the form of rain, wind, hail, tornadoes, or flash floods. These events peak in the spring and summer, depending on your location.
Warm air has a much greater potential for containing moisture than cold air.
And then, so do the chances for that severe thunderstorm with its torrential rain to deluge your area, perhaps accompanied by strong winds. If I were a plant manager in charge of an operation that utilizes chemicals, I would want the satisfaction of knowing that I had a source of accurate weather information, just in case one of those severe weather episodes hit my location. With its programmable microprocessor and abundant memory, the Capricorn 2000 Weather Display can display weather information, perform complex computations and store relatively large amounts of weather data. The displays are designed to be viewed clearly from a distance. Screen size is 4.8 x 3.6 inches.
