Recorded daily weather on sheets of paper or in a notebook from when I was a child as despite being brought up in a city I found weather fascinating. I did not have enough knowledge to get into the world professionally, and relied on instruments sold for gardeners, not to quality needed for professionals.
On retirement I bought myself a Fine Offset Weather Station, used since early 2009.
Started using Cumulus 1.9.2 (build 1017) as I wanted something that would produce web pages that I could experiment with (as I had decided to learn HTML 5, JavaScript, jQuery, PHP and MySQL; initially because I thought it gave me a saleable skill for my retirement).
For a few years while away from home (and weather station), as a full-time carer, I learnt about METAR usage in all countries of world.
When I got back to my home, I focussed on outside pursuits, and usage of any computer virtually ceased.
I had recordings at one (town) location for 10 years. I have moved twice since.
In early 2020 I restarted using Cumulus 1 at my latest home in a village bungalow with garden where I hope to see out my days.
