Product Description

Hyperlocal weather information at your fingertips for home, office, or business use with this AcuRite Weather Station. This professional home weather station allows you to monitor your backyard weather conditions from anywhere, anytime. A Weather Center to Monitor Accurate Weather Conditions, Anywhere: This personal weather station allows you to monitor weather conditions in the home, garden, RV park, or any precise location. Enjoy the benefits of an anemometer, rain gauge, wind vane, hygrometer, and thermometer all in one wireless device. Many customers enjoy utilizing this home weather station as a wireless forecast station due to its reliable forecasting technology. Using the built-in weather barometer, the weather station takes 4,000 readings at 12-minute increments to calculate a running average and compute the barometric pressure for your exact location. The pressure accuracy of AcuRite self-calibrating forecasters increases with each new reading over a period of time (Learning Mode). After 14 days, the self-calibrated pressure is reasonably accurate (although the algorithm continues to run; 4,000 readings = 33.33 days) and the weather forecaster is ready for superior weather prediction. Protect your family, house, and garden with minute-by-minute updates in weather changes, including the outdoor temperature, humidity, wind speed/direction, rainfall, and lightning. Plus, the display includes an indoor thermometer and hygrometer to measure indoor temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure. The professional AcuRite weather station is easy to set up, includes mounting hardware, and features a 2-year battery life (not included)..

Self-Calibrating for Your Location

Our weather stations use a unique algorithm to analyze changes in pressure over time (called Learning Mode) to determine your altitude. After 14 days, the self-calibrated pressure is tuned in to your location, and the unit is ready for superior weather prediction.

Superior, Hyperlocal Weather Forecasting

AcuRite’s patented Self-Calibrating Forecasting provides your personal forecast of weather conditions 12 hours in advance by collecting data from the sensor in your backyard. It generates a forecast with pinpoint accuracy — personalized for your exact location.

Barometric Pressure

Subtle variations in barometric pressure greatly affect the weather. This weather center displays the current pressure with an arrow icon to indicate the direction the pressure is trending (falling, steady, or rising).

Rainfall Tracking

AcuRite professional weather stations feature enhanced tracking of historical rainfall data. Rain accumulation data is recorded for today, over all-time, by year, by month, and by rainfall event.

    Draws a lot of current
    I bought this for an Amish friend for his farm. The power supply claims to draw 250ma. It's currently drawing almost 2.5A. This is off by a factor of 10. If you're planning on using this in an offgrid type situation, be aware of the extra power draw.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 14+ Years of Reliable Service
    Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2024
    Style: Color DisplayVerified Purchase
    14+ years ago (OK, approximately +/- a year or so) I purchased an Acurite 5 & 1 weather station. It worked flawlessly through a move, several tropical storms, heavy rain and snow. It did not survive the painters who destroyed the wind cups. Time for a new station.
    There are many choices now for weather stations and I took my time to do some research. For rock solid reliability, ease of use and accuracy, I just could not justify purchasing a different brand. Besides, my mount and remote battery pack fit the new Acurite sensor perfectly.
    Oh, the old monochrome display? It's still working just fine as a secondary display in my ham radio station downstairs.
    I'm very pleased with the new station but not surprised with the quality and value delivered. It's definitely a 5 star purchase (again).

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good unit except for the solar panel powered aspirator fan
    Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2016
    Style: Color DisplayVerified Purchase
    The AcuRite units are decent, low cost weather stations, where the main problem is with the aspirator fan and solar panel that powers the fan. Either the solar panel, or the fan, often fail, and then the unit overheats in the sun and gives wildly high temperature readings. It is March here in Maryland, and the base unit is telling me that the highest temperature recorded so far is 92 degrees (the actual high was about 76). Obviously, the fan wasn't working.

    My first unit never worked right, the fan would not start up no matter how much sun hit the solar panel. If you opened the unit up, aimed it directly at the sun and gave the fan a push, it would spin slowly. I sent the first unit back for replacement at Amazon, and the second unit worked perfectly for a week. Then the fan stopped working on that unit. I was getting ready to send it back when I saw that Amazon had dropped the price by $40. We called, and got the $40 refund, which I used to buy the 06003RMA1 PRO+ Upgrade with dual solar panels that are tilted so that one gets the morning sun, and the other gets afternoon sun. I installed the dual panel upgrade, and now the 5-in-1 sensor is working great. I can't say how long the upgraded unit will work, but I will post an update if the dual panel aspirator fan unit fails.

    Otherwise, the unit if nice. Construction is cheap, but the unit is very low cost compared with units like those from Davis. I really like the ability to adjust readings for temp, humidity, and rainfall so that if the readings are not correct, you can tweak them. As long as the unit keeps working, I am happy with it. I really didn't want to spend 350 to 600 dollars on a weather station. I highly recommend that if you are considering this unit, get the one with the two solar panels rather than the versions with one. This will give you much more accurate outdoor temperature readings when sun is hitting the sensor.

    My wife seen one of these at a local B&M store and shown great interest. With her birthday soon approaching, I thought it'd make a great surprise present. So I said I would check it out online. She was surprised when she opened the box. The weather station was easy to set up; well a bit hard trying to find a level post to attach it to. I ended up hooking it to an arbor post as that was the closest to level in the bubble. It was farther away from the base though (about 80'). It wasn't a problem though as they both connected instantly. If in doubt install the batteries first before screwing fast to be sure the signal is there. We have had it for a week now. We both love this weather station. Easy to set up; Fun to watch and monitor; And the price here was great!

    I've had a few of these over the years but this one seems so far to be a winner!
    Easy to set up and install, good range from the outdoor unit to the indoor base, doesn't drop out signal.
    The data displayed is clear, precise and not complicated. Fun and interesting to use.
    Highly recommend.

    I like all features except you can't change date to UK / Europe style, also no option for 24hr clock - but everything else is great
