Other stations surrounding me are reporting two times less the amount my Tempest has recorded. While the haptic isn’t perfect, is this normal to see this high of an amount compared to other brands and stations? The station is clear of branches, leaves, and trees. If your noticing something similar, let me know. Thank you!
