Kestrel 4000 Pocket Weather Meter and Barometer
This digital hand-held wind-meter, barometer, thermometer, etc, is a sea kayaker's dream. It even floats, and yes it's waterproof.
The Kestral 4000 has the best bar graph display of any hand-held barometer on the market, and it's easy to use. It also
graphs barometric pressure, dew point, relative humidity (handy for predicting morning fog), wind speed, temperature. It
stores 300 data points, and you can set frequency of readings
as well as the graph scales and units of measure (i.e. pressure in mb, in-Hg, etc. Temperature in F or C, etc.).
Backlight is bright enough to make it easy to read at night. If you are going out into remote
areas where weather radio signals don't exist or are often blocked by land, you need this meter.
Batteries, lanyard and soft case included.
