We've had no rain in the past 24 hours. Thank heaven for small favors.
I get most of my readings from my own weather instruments that I have planted on the North side of the house. I enjoy my own weather system and it isn't very complicated or expensive.
If you are interested in a personal weather system, why not look at some of the various options that are out there. I happen to use a LaCrosse station and it has served me very well.
LaCrosse Technology, atomic time and weather systems from professional to back yard types.

The foregoing are only 3 of the many manufacturers of wireless weather stations you can find, an independent web search will turn up many, many more. So look them over and maybe have some fun.
