Title: Direct Upload weather station
Post by: stpal001 on April 17, 2018, 09:14:39 PM

Greetings:
I have been running a Davis Vantage Pro for the last 12 years. It is time to replace it. I am looking for a weather station that will upload directly to Weather Underground without having to have a host PC constantly running in the background. I guess that would be an IP Wx Station. I am looking for suggestions on low-cost units with this capability.

Lower cost option is to add a Meteobridge (rather than PC) to lots of cheap stations. But I am guessing you won''t be happy with the quality of them compared to your Davis.

Very shortly you will have that option via a 3rd party data logger.

Home Depot has an Acurite 5n1 with a WiFi display that transmits to wunderground for $99.
