Looking for folks who would be interested in playing host to some sensors, radios, and small computers. I would be collecting atmospheric conditions, gases, radiation, and emergency pages sent out to first responders.
This would be a part of what might be an open mesonet network of stations that provide more data than your typical weather station. As host to the station you would have access to the data coming from it as well as the data collected from other stations.

I’ve heard about the relentless wind in Aruba. The aridity and barrenness of the island is pretty interesting, along with the Guajira Peninsula in Colombia and neighboring areas. Not totally sure why, but it could be rainshadowing from the nearby Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.
Washington’s coastal glaciated mountain range is cool… but Colombia has one in the deep tropics!
The recent 3 year La Niña stored a huge load of heat within the IPWP, which was suddenly released en masse during the strong El Niño.
People blame the 1998 super niño for the subsequent “jump” in baseline global temps at the turn of the century, but in reality it was the 3+ year niña from 1999-2001 that sequestered all that heat in the IPWP.
Same with that massive 3+ year niña from 1973/74 - 1975/76. What followed was the great pacific climate shift of 1976, and a subsequent jump in global temperatures.
We need only look to CERES data to see how radiative emission to space increases during El Niño, and decreases during La Niña.
