La Crosse Technology WS-8035U-IT-SAL Wireless Weather Station with Remote Temperature and Humidity Gauge


Amazing Geeky and Cool!5

I received a well deserved "C" in Meteorology in College but when I got the Wireless Weather Station I was stunned at what I had missed and what this device can offer. Quite simply an outdoor sensor (a small iPod sized `thermo/hygro sensor') placed on an outside post or wall acts as the receptor of information from yes the NIST (National Institute of Standards & Technology-Time and Frequency Division) radio station WWVB in Ft. Collins Colorado daily. Also using the local weather the sensor transmits tons of information to the very cool looking unit in your house. Here are some of the features you see:



*Controlled Time

*Moon Phase Display

*Indoor Temperature/Humidity Display

*Outdoor Temperature

*Date Display

*A cute Comfort Icon

*a Forecast Icon

*Air Pressure Trend Indicator

*Barometric Air Pressure

*24-hour Air Pressure History

*Humidity Display

*Remote Sensor Number



It can be read in 12 or 24 hour mode. There is a radio controlled alarm that also has a snooze (or off). Maybe you can just watch the news to get your information but this is more than a weather station for your neighborhood - it is a conversation piece. The only drawback I could find is that the LCD display is not very bright without indoor lighting. But that's a small complaint considering all the cool stuff you get just by glancing at the display on your wall (I put mine among all my wall photos). This would also make a really great gift for anyone - weather-wise or not.
