Weather Station Hardware > What Weather Station Should I Buy?
Which weather service to use?
Brutha:
Hi All,
I'm not sure this topic really belongs here, but I couldn't really see another relevant forum, and it's in relation to the purchase of my new weather station!
Until now I've been using wunderground, since my old weather station could only easily with it, and mostly I'm happy with the layout etc. But one thing about it is a real pain; you can only choose imperial or metric units - which is no good in the UK since we use mostly metric units, but MPH for wind speed.
With the new one (Ecowitt with GW1100 and CumulusMX on Raspberry Pi), I now have a much wider choice. Does anyone have any suggestions for the best service to use, that doesn't have the above restriction?
Cheers
Brutha

I'm a fan of Windy. Dead easy to set up with CumulusMx and good graphics, you can set your units and favourites for your forecasts

Aha, that looks really promising! But perhaps I'm missing something, how do you find a local weather station and navigate to it? If I click on what appears to be a weather station on the map, it shows me a forecast instead of current data or history etc.
