Austin was supposed to be 75 tomorrow. The weather apps still show 75 but the NWS says 56. Only a 20-degree difference. No biggie :D

Cool air overperforming again. Our forecast dropped 10° for Saturday.

Sure beats record minimum lows. :lol:

Going out with the dog to "earn" our chimichangas!

What do you guys recommend for a home weather station? Our old cheapo La Crosse unit bit the dust finally. I don't necessarily need one with an anemometer, but it seems like all the ones that just do temp / humidity have big accuracy problems.

Is it really go big like this or go home? How durable are these beastly looking things?

81°F but the DP is about 60°.

I hate turning on the A/C, but because it's not ridiculously humid and lows will reach the 50s, I'll allow it.

It’s the best weather station I’ve ever owned so far. Good longevity. Pretty durable.

That one is pretty cool, but we really don't need all those features. Simple temp and humidity will suffice, so long as they are reasonably accurate.
