Summary Of: AWOS

There are several varieties of AWOS depending upon the sensor systems which are installed... additional sensors which have become available for AWOS systems include present weather... Older AWOS systems used a Lithium Chloride Dew Point sensor... Current AWOS systems use capacitive relative humidity sensors... Some AWOS systems now have their own lightning sensor to actually measure lightning strikes at the site...
