Work with the environment, not agains t it
With Netatmo’s Urban Weather Station, the weather will never take you by surprise
British weather is notoriously unpredictable, particularly in spring. If you’re tired of your picnic plans becoming a wash- out or you want to know exactly how many layers you should be wearing, then you need Netatmo’s Urban Weather Station.
Tracking the weather where you are in real-time as well as giving the forecast for the week ahead is only one small part of what Netatmo’s Weather Station does. Through its two Wi-Fi-connected sensors it actually allows you to monitor and track your environment both inside and out.
By environment we mean temperature, air pressure, humidity, air pollution levels, CO concentration and noise levels.
Having access to this information allows you to easily make your living environment more comfortable and plan outdoor activities accordingly. Rather than waking up in the morning and assuming bright sunlight means it’s warm enough outside for shorts, you can simply check your Netatmo app for the exact and ‘feels like’ temperature where you are.
For greater depth, you can expand your Netatmo network to include more indoor and outdoor modules. Additional indoor modules allow you to monitor several rooms in your home, while adding outdoor wind and rain gauges makes weather tracking more specific.
It’s a sprawling kit, but every Netatmo weather sensor is united by the Netatmo app for iOS, Android and desktop, which displays all of the data collected in an easy-to-read way. Through the app you can also create personalised notifications, so if you’d like to be alerted when it begins to rain, the app will send you an immediate push notification.
The recent integration with Amazon Alexa means finding out the temperature can be as simple as asking your Echo device.
The Urban Weather Station starter kit costs £ 119.99. For each additional indoor module (up to three more are supported) it costs £59.99, while the rain and wind gauges are an additional £59.99 and £89.99 respectively.
