See ''LCMaxWind=X'' parameter in [[Cumulus.ini#La_Crosse_specific:]] where X is the maximum (uncalibrated) wind speed in m/s that you want to allow. | See ''LCMaxWind=X'' parameter in [[Cumulus.ini#La_Crosse_specific:]] where X is the maximum (uncalibrated) wind speed in m/s that you want to allow. | ||
