PC/Internet weather stations
« on: March 29, 2008, 18:31:35 »
Im sure one of of you will know.

Id like some form of weather station that I can read when im away form home (nag the wift to do the watering) , or look at historic logs etc.  Just a whim but it may be interesting as im doing some gardening stuff at the moment.

Monitor
Outside temp
Wind
Rain if poss
Remote temp for a greenhouse or 2
Maybe barometer

I dont care about it looking nice as it will be in the office, can anyone point me at a good website/supplier/info.

Thanks.

I bought one for my mum a few years back http://www.audon.co.uk/1-wire_weather.html . There's a website that hosts personal weather stations too
http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/index.asp they're all over the world but you can select by country.
