Finally come around to the realization that a weather station which links to the national weather system, This early I can't think of the name, is more than a toy, here in the desert.What weather station requiring the fewest or no holes, in the roof, color display,radar, storm warning etc is out there?

TEMPEST that's the name of it if I'm not mistakenThe link below will take you directly to ONE such station and from there you can link to the BUY pageTempest station 4559 Davison MI

That Tempest system looks pretty good. Hmmmm....

We have 3 weather "systems" at our house... One Olde-fashiony dial type barometer, which works pretty good.A LaCrosse "weather station" with an outdoor sensor. Works okay, not as good as I'd like.A "water glass". Where the colored water goes up and down a narrow tube. Astoundingly accurate! Easily 85% accurate for tomorrows weather. ALL THREE of these "systems" are more accurate that the weatherperson on radio or TV. I work outside, so I am always aware of the weather forecast.

Davis Instruments. Have had several - very good quality. They can be had in wireless models and you can clamp the sensor system to the ladder with a short pole.Rob
