Product Description

Be prepared for the hottest days! This full-featured forecaster tells you more than just the temperature – it tells you how hot it feels outside. It derives this heat index rating from a combination of outdoor temperature and humidity measurements. You'll know whether it's merely warm – or downright sweltering. It also forecasts impending weather 12 to 20 hours in advance so you can make your plans accordingly.

Features:

  • Heat index
  • Outdoor temperature and humidity
  • Indoor comfort icon
  • Indoor temperature and humidity
  • Radio-controlled time
  • 12 animated moon phases with twinkling stars
  • Forecasts weather 12-20 hours in advance
  • Air pressure tendency indicator
  • Outdoor dew point
  • Bright LED backlight
  • 433 MHz outdoor transmitter
  • Wall hanging or free standing
The remote wireless sensor transmits its signal up to 330 feet away to your display panel indoors. A bright LED backlight helps you see the display in total darkness. And, the integrated digital clock syncs with the U.S. atomic clock for perfectly accurate time and date. A smart choice for anyone who likes to anticipate – and beat – the heat. Indoor temperature range: 32° F to 140° F (0° C to 60° C). Outdoor temperature range: -22° F to 158° F (-30° C to 70° C).

Smaller and better5
After our original weather station was dropped and broke, it was reassuring to get this new version that is smaller and displays more information in an easier to read format.

Good value for the money5
I have no complaints about this unit. I find it accurate and easy to read. I'm considering purchasing another one as a gift.

Great to watch5
I saw this on Amazon shopping one day, I bought one for myself. I was so impressed, I bought one for my grandchildren. It is very educational. I can't stop looking at the one I have.
