67: I've never used the Accu-rite product, but it looks interesting.
Skip: sampling sea surface temperatures (over larger areas) can be done with SST 5 kilometer grid satellite data; barring any data connection (out beyond any data communications), data-logging all the water you plow through combining with other instrument-gathered climate data to make informed TS development decisions is essential, for sure!
On land, we have extremely dense Doppler coverage, and excellent mesoscale real-time discussions pretty well everywhere coast-to-coast. Barring a total failure of all (or, most) of your recording instruments, it is highly recommended that you understand basic weather prediction by reading the cloud situation, for sure. There are several great websites (and portable guides one should carry) to learn this technique...
