OurWeather – WeatherUnderground Interface Released

SwitchDoc Labs has now released a new version of the OurWeather software that supports uploads to the personal weather station display company, the Weather Underground.   This new software version for the popular OurWeather Weather Station and stores the data from the weather station up on the WeatherUnderground website.   This software update is freely available to all OurWeather customers and the open source software for the OurWeather kit (Arduino IDE) is located here:  https://github.com/switchdoclabs/OurWeatherWeatherPlus

What is OurWeather?

OurWeather is an ESP8266 based  connected weather station containing 7 different sensors that will teach about electronics, software and the weather.   It contains all the sensors and wires to make a fully functional, WiFi weather station.   No software programming is required, it works right out of the box. However, if you want to change the way OurWeather works, add your own software or do something entirely different, we have the Open Source software available.   And what is one of the coolest features of OurWeather?   Building the kit requires NO SOLDERING. It uses Grove Connectors.    It is all plug and play based building, with a full step-by-step photograph based instruction manual.  It is a safe and educational way to learn about weather, electronics and science topics.   You can watch our successful kickstarter video here: https://youtu.be/pw6hSNSQnsM

 What Does OurWeather Look Up on the WeatherUnderground Site?

One of our OurWeather customers is located in Santa Barbara brought his station up with our beta (now released) software in the past few days.   This magnificent flying gentleman is a world-class paraglider and is keenly interested in the local weather conditions because he likes to fly every day!   Here is his live site:
