home weather station

Who has a home weather station?

I've been wanting to buy one but am a bit overwhelmed with all the choices out there. Ideally, it will have indoor/outdoor temps, indoor/outdoor humidity, and a barometer function. Even better is one that can be extended with additional functions such as rainfall amounts, and wind speed/direction in case I want to add that stuff later on.

Any suggestions from other weather geeks?

I've looked at them too but then figured I can just get much better local weather info for free online.

I have one from Oregon Scientific. It's all wireless, shows in & out temps,wind chill, barometer, rainfall (auto empty), wind (average speed, top speed, & direction). It was less than $200. All the outdoor stuff is built good enough, and each has a solar panel on it. I put lithium batteries in it 2 yrs ago & only now does one thing want new batteries, but, it sends info all day even with dead batteries. During the summer there's enough sunlight to charge it's internal battery.
PS the little gauge on top left is another wind speed. That one is hard wire. You can't have two radio control wind speeds at once. Well, technically you can, but every one made, by every company, uses the same frequency.
PPS For about $100 I think, you can buy software that connects to your computer & records all info 24 hrs a day.

I just have a simple wireless thermometer that displays indoor and outdoor temps and records low and high temps. I thought about getting a more involved station, but weatherbug has a couple stations locally, one about 1 mile away and the other about 3 miles away. If I don't feel like looking out the window, I can bring up the webpage and look at the camera view!
