Brief cloudy, milder, dry update for West Rockville Maryland for Saturday October 14 2017
I was really busy Saturday. I watched my Wisconsin Badgers beat Purdue 17-9 in a closer game than I expected. I spoke a lot on the phone with many friends, including Josh H for a few hours about all things weather, including joining weathertogether. The Yanks lost to Houston in another 2-1 thriller.
Saturday’s high and low temps and daily precip amount from the VP2 (coming from the ground radiation shield about 4 feet off the ground just under and out from the balcony), the Lakewood WXBug station and the USG VP2 station across the street are as follows:
Station Relative Location Temp RH DP BP Wind High/Low temp today
VP2 67.4/59.2
There was no rain in the cocorahs gauge on Saturday. The VP2 tipping bucket recorded no rain on Saturday.

There was no rain reported once again in the USG gauge on Saturday as the VP2 continues not to function properly. The USG VP2 continues to stay offline all day and is not providing much data (save for barometric pressure readings).
