Okay, I read that the unit comes with a mounting bracket but how high of a pole should I mount this unit on? I would like to have accurate readings.

Hello, We recommend mounting the 5-in-1 sensor at least 5 feet off of the ground. The National Weather Service recommends mounting the sensor 33 feet above the ground with no obstructions within 100 feet for the most accurate wind speeds. We understand not all of our customers can mount this high. You should receive an accurate reading for where it is mounted. If you are comparing to a local news station, they typically follow the National Weather Service guidelines. For further questions, please reach out to our support team via live chat or email request on the AcuRite Support website. Have a fabulous day! Haylee AcuRite Support Team
