How high for the thermometer? Well it depends on what you want to read. Seriously, ours is 6' above our second floor balcony. It will read higher than something close to ground level. We live on a ridge top. On still evenings, the valley below is often 5-8 degrees cooler than it is up at the house. Only at breezy times are the temperatures consistent.
FWIW, our Davis Vantage Pro II is mounted with the wind sensor on the top of a 20' mast. The rest of the station is at 6' above the balcony.
