[Home Weather Stations?]

Just avoid Ore*** Sci****** as they rot from the inside out in our damp climate and spares are like hens' teeth, ie there's no after sales at all.

You'd think considering where Oregon is that they'd be built better for our weather!

Thank you all, this has been helpful

[Home Weather Stations?]

Hello. Long suffering wife of a weather watching addict (acknowledged, he could have worse habits!). I was wondering if people around these parts have any experience with home weather stations. I'm after a gift for him for Christmas - we've got an old fashioned barometer in the living room and he got himself a small digital weather box a couple of years ago, but I see there are "Professional Weather Stations" (to use Maplin's words - I'm looking in particular at this USB touchscreen machine). I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this model or something similar? Should I be looking elsewhere? I can probably stretch to about twice this price if I need to.
