2025 Weather Station Buyers Guide and Test Results
Our buyers guide has all the information you need to make the right choice when buying a home weather station, including our exclusive test results.
While every station we tested reports worthwhile data, only a few stations are compatible with the Weather Underground network. Stations like the Ambient WS-2000 also integrate with their proprietary app to share real-time data with other Ambient users.
” The Ambient Weather app is excellent for reviewing charts and points on a graph, but there's no way of exporting raw data for this station. It also takes some time and a bit of plotting to set up. There's some assembly required; it needs to be on a pole or post, and it can't be too close to any structures or trees.
In addition to allowing the user to check the weather station's temperatures, windspeeds, and humidity, the app automatically creates visually pleasing graphs and has a social network where other weather station operators actively share photos of their local readings. We love that the Ambient Weather WS-2902C Osprey includes a wireless tablet.
There's some assembly required; it needs to be on a pole or post, and it can't be too close to any structures or trees. Overall, the Ambient Weather WS-2902C is a super accurate, high-performance weather station that we think most home users will be happy with.
