    I've had an entry level Acurite Wireless Weather Station for a couple of years. It's very basic but accurate if you keep the outside sensor out of the rain and direct sunlight. Seems like I paid around $35 at my local Lowes Home Center.

    I have an AcuRite 5 in 1 at both places. I like the ability to monitor things remotely since they report out to Weather Underground. I think I’ve had them both for about 5 years. They’re relatively trouble free. One of the solar panels on my unit in CT went bad. I think it was $40 or so for the housing I replaced.

    All we have is an analog thermometer in the window. I can jump on the laptop and call up local weather if need be. Besides, I can look outside and see the conditions..in this case all white.

    Also have an analog rain gauge on the deck rail. I think it was 3 bucks at the farm store.

    me, I'm into simple and cheap.
