Best weather software to run on a mac


Recommended Posts

I am sure this has been discussed before but I would appreciate any views on what people think is the best software to run on an imac to take data from your weather station. I have a Davis Vantage Pro. I am trying Weathercat but will have to pay for a licance soon. Are there any  good free options that do a simple job as I don't need anything very fancy.  I am aware of Cumulus but I can't seem to find a mac friendly version?

Hi

It's one version for windows/mac os/linux.  Although, there is actually a raspberry pi image as well.

Cumulus MX is not an app, but it is more of a web server. The set up process is done via a web browser, as is viewing your weather data.

    Dubai Floods: Another Warning Sign for Desert Regions?

    The flooding in the Middle East desert city of Dubai earlier in the week followed record-breaking rainfall.
