The new face of home weather stations ? Pro standard, cheap, and featuring a lot

Posted by Universal on August 31st, 2015

In the past, affordable home weather stations used to be sort of half baked, somewhat patronizing versions of real weather stations. They didn’t really do justice to the skills of keen amateur meteorologists, and bluntly, were far too much like “something for the kiddies”.  The good equipment, of course, was priced hopelessly out of reach for consumers.

There’s been a complete turnaround in recent years, thanks largely to the development of digital technology and what could be described as a far more realistic understanding of the needs of people who use home weather stations. Let’s face it – if you live in Tornado Alley or hurricane country, or have business assets out on the road, you need hard information, not “soothsaying equipment”.

Perhaps appropriately, one of the leading online suppliers of weather stations in the US, a company called Weather Shack.com, is also one of the enforcers of the new quality standards for home weather stations on the market. These guys have made a habit of getting new technology on the market quickly for many years, and their clients obviously don’t seem to mind much. The inevitable result has been that the new wireless weather stations and cabled home weather stations have been getting snapped up by consumers.

They have an excellent range of all the latest equipment. Their product range covers everything from the very advanced pro standard wireless weather stations to efficient, ultra-useful handheld devices and on-site weather stations, including the new smart phone-connected weather stations.
The other critically important factor in the mix is their range of prices. What used to be highly expensive professional level equipment is now basically within the reach of anyone’s credit card. If you’re looking for top of the line equipment, start here. Take your time, browse around, ask questions, and you will definitely find what you want.

To check out all the latest technology, and to get a very good range of indicators of prices, visit their website here at www.weathershack.com. You’ll see all the top brands, like Davis and LaCrosse, too. It’s a bit like browsing through your own personal wish list. Expect to have fun, as well as finding the equipment you need.
