Abstract
An agricultural apparatus operable in agricultural fields includes one or more digital electronic weather stations affixed to the apparatus and optionally one or more GPS receivers and/or proximity sensors, each coupled to a mobile computing device such as a cab computer. The weather stations transmit data representing wind speed, temperature and/or other weather parameters, as measured on the apparatus, to the mobile computing device. Under control of program logic, the mobile computing device continuously compares real-time, then-current weather data received from the weather stations to programmed or configured threshold values relating to a current agricultural operation. If the weather data indicates weather conditions that exceed one of the thresholds, a warning message may be generated at the mobile computing device to prompt the operator to confirm whether to continue the operation.
