Knowing the Wind Speed: GO Launch or NO-GO Launch

It may not be crucially important to some to know how fast the wind is blowing right before launch, but for me it is very important as I dont have alot of recovery area to play with.

I stumbled upon this video that shows how to make an anemometer that can measure (roughly) windspeeds.

IF you have 25 bucks to spare you could simply get one of these:

HQRP Digital Pocket Anemometer Wind Speed Meter & Thermometer Handheld Weather Station Beaufort Wind Scale plus HQRP Coaster
