Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Product Description
Roll out of bed every morning knowing exactly how to dress for outdoors. The La Crosse Wireless Forecast Station with Oscar Outlook features 15 forecast icons based on temperature and air pressure readings that tell you what weather to expect today and how you should dress accordingly. If Oscar is wearing a coat and a scarf, it’s gonna be a chilly one today. The station monitors indoor/outdoor temperature and humidity, as well as basic forecast information, around the clock. Uses 3 weather icons and pressure tendency indicator to display forecast. Included sensor sends wireless signal to the station from up to 330 feet. Atomic time and date automatically resets to Daylight Savings Time. Constantly updates as often as every 4 seconds for immediate weather information. No assembly required. Receiver measures 5.6 x 1.2 x 3.2 inches. Outdoor sensor measures 5.3 x 2.3 x 2.4 inches. 4 AA Alkaline batteries required (sold separately). A low-battery indicator lets you know when replacement is necessary. Hang the station on a wall or set it on a table or counter for easy viewing.

Performs As Advertized
Easy set-up. Just insert the batteries in the temp/humidity sensor, then the base unit, as the instructions indicate. They synch up in a moment and you're ready to go. The atomic clock feature is handy for helping to keep the other clocks around the home set more accurately. Also records high/low temps for a given period. If you're looking for an easy-to-use, relatively inexpensive indoor/outdoor wireless thermometer, this unit will do the job nicely.
nice product - not 330' range
This is a wonderful, well designed and well made product. It's temperature and humidity readings, indoors and outdoors, are accurate. I experienced only one issue with the device, and it is a fairly major one. That is the stated 330' range of the exterior sensor. In order to have the exterior sensor not in the sun during any part of the day I needed to place it about 25' away from the base station with one interior wall (wood stud) and one exterior wall (wood stud with fiberglass insulation). To my disappointment, no connection. I ended up settling on a location about 15' away through one exterior wall only. Two other minor issues - when changing batteries you apparently need to have both initialize both base and remote at the same time - a pain when the remote is, well, remote. Also, I hear that the batteries in the remote don't last long - makes sense if they are out in frigid weather having to work continously.
Great Weather Station
As the other reviewer noted set up is easy. I really like the fact that it displays the time the indoor/outdoor temperature and humidty all at the same time. The station works great and is pretty accurate.
