The Australian Bureau of Meteorology collates data from this station, and distributes it by the following website: (visit link)

At an elevation of 350 metres, the hill ('Mountain') has advantages and disadvantages. These are measured and interpreted by giving: Ambient Temperature (Temp °C), Steadman Apparent Temperature (App Temp °C) - the thermal comfort factor, Temperature to which air must be cooled for dew to form (Dew Point °C), Relative Humidity (Rel Hum %), Wet Bulb Air Temperature (Delta-T °C), Wind Direction (Relative to True North), Wind observations averaged over 10 minutes ('Spd', in km/h, and Knots), Wind gust is measured over 3 seconds (Gust, in km/h, and Knots), *Pressure not measured here*, and Cumulative Rainfall, since 9am.

While the website gives the Station ID as: 084144, the Cat. No. tag on the box reads: 502584. The Serial Number could not be read at a distance of ~6 metres.
