The Limestone Coast Landscape Board is seeking feedback from the community on how they access weather information in the region and the use of the Limestone Coast (LC) Automatic Weather Station Network.

The request for feedback in the form of a survey comes as the Board is currently assessing the use of weather stations in the region and the need for future investment in the Automatic Weather Station Network.

The information from the survey will enable the Board to make an informed decision on levy investment into upgrading the weather stations.

The current LC Automatic Weather Station Network consists of 20 stations located on both private and crown land and were established to assist landholders in the region to assist with management decisions. A lot has changed with technology and it is important to understand if the weather stations still provide value.
