Anyone have their own home weather station?
We, yes we, decided that it was time to upgrade our home weather station. We've had the same Acurite weather station for 16yrs and it was time for an upgrade.
Even after 16yrs, the old station still keeps plugging away. Once a year I replace batteries and clean the outdoor unit up. When the rain gauge stops working, you can guarantee that somehow a spider got in there and is causing the issue. Yearly cleaning will fix that.
Although... we .... decided, when "we" decide it is never really all I'd like but, everyone needs keeping in check. So this time the decision was made to stick with Acurite and go with the Acurite Atlas model and HD display. The rest of the goodies really are not necessary. If this one lasts as long, Acurite will have been good to us.
