It depends what you mean by "view my PWS".  If your PWS has the ability to collect data and send it to the internet (like using Wunderground.com) then yes.  Or if your PWS is connected to a computer you can use Team Viewer on your  computer (free Host version) and the Team Viewer app on your phone to log into that computer remotely from anywhere you receive data service on your phone. 

Bottom line here is that your PWS has to have some way of getting the data out of it and there are a number of ways that could happen depending on the brand and model of your PWS.  So let's start there.

What brand and model is your PWS?

thanks for the reply. I was pretty sure in this day n age that it could happen. I use WU, http://www.wunderground.com/US/NM/Ruidoso.html, but that is just minimal information. My PWS has a dedicated computer that sends info to WU 24/7. My PWS has multiple sensors for different locations around my house, to help me monitor temps so I can avoid pipes freezing. Can you help me move forward with the remote viewing?

I think it's a Radio Shack 63-256. Does that sound right?

If you get one of my weather stations you can view and remote control your WX station directly from your tablet or phone.


See http://wws.us.to.  There is a Menu with links to active stations, The link to Local interface shows you the station display in real time.
