  • Great Weather Station, App Not So Much...

    By OregonTrails
    I love the Tempest weather station, but the point of the exercise here is to rate the app, not the weather station. I’ve had the station and the app for three months and, up to now, the two have worked flawlessly in tandem. Today however, the app decided that it would no longer open. The station is still online, because, if I go to the website, I can access it, but the app will not open. When I click on it, I will get the opening blue screen and the app will close. I’v restarted the hub, but again, the issue is not with the weather station itself. I uninstalled/reinstalled the app... Same problem. I tried it on another of my IOS devices... Same problem. I tried it on my wife’s IOS device... Same problem. Something has dramatically (and recently) gone wrong with the IOS app and no amount of fussing will help. EDIT: The app developers got back to me and there was a fix put in place that rectified the crashing-on-opening issue. App working just fine across all iOS devices.

  • Wind Chill

    Could you add the wind chill to the live screen and on the widget? Thanks again.

  • Best Comprehensive Weather Station Available

    This brilliantly-designed, sturdy, compact, wireless weather station using sonic, haptic, and computer technology provides not only instantaneous but also historical data of all meteorological parameters. Particularly noteworthy is the Tempest’s comparative data access to multiple other local/regional Tempest stations coupled with experiential learning and AI to produce truly local (“micro”) and regional (“macro”) forecasting that always equals or beats the NWS. The personal Tempest webpage that comes with the station is accessible by cell phone or computer anywhere in the world with Internet as well as to multiple family members. Moreover, at an individual owner’s discretion the data can be shared with The Weather Underground’s network!! I live right on the North Atlantic coastline and have been fascinated by its ever-changing weather conditions, for decades using analog wireless instruments: namely Maximum’s Criterion Maestro Anemometer/Mini-Max Temperature together with a Chelsea Professional Shipstrike aneroid barometer augmented by internet data out of Pease International Airport’s tower. I find my new Tempest unit tracks all this data precisely, but gives far more meteorological information AND historical trending. Perhaps the most amazing aspect of the Weatherflow Tempest is just how easy it is to get it set up and running!!

  • Nice App

    Installation went smooth and found good info to help with locating the station. Found other features reading reviews. Thought the rain sensor was reading low, but noticed it seems to catch up to the yard rain gauge by the end of the day. Noticed in the fall season, that falling leaves hitting the sensor on a windy day will trigger a rain event and an alert when there is no rain. Station is 20 ft above the chimney cap so it is still in range of some leaves Will see what happens when it snows

  • Super easy to setup

    Wow! Easiest setup ever! I was up and running in 5 minutes including downloading the app. Placing the sensor head is also super easy compared to the 2 other weather stations I have setup in the last 5 years. With NO moving parts, this system is a true game changer in terms of simplicity. It that eventually translates into good longevity, these guys have a home run on their hands!

  • Maybe not ready for prime time

    I love the idea and design of this station but after two months the rain sensor has died. Contacting support by email was not reassuring; received a reply that due to the heavy volume of support requests there will be a delay with my request. This is not a good sign.

  • Great!

    Please supply an Apple Watch app!

  • Needs Apple Watch capabilities

    Love the station, the app, but it needs an Apple Watch app and complications.

  • Would love an Apple Watch app

    Agree with what others have said. The station and app are wonderful. All that’s missing is Apple Watch integration with complications. Would much rather see the weather at my home via Tempest than whatever the Weather app shows.

  • So much data, so underdeveloped a graphing interface.

    By Nixlimited
    The app has nice front end main pages, but if you want to dive into the data, it’s severely lacking. The graphing UI is clunky, slow, and barely seems to support multitouch. I have a $30 Govee sensor that presents temp and humidity data in a far better fashion in its app. Honestly, it seems like a pretty unrefined port from another platform. Some suggestions: Leverage the powerful multitouch UI capabilities of iOS to make data exploration more seamless (eg live horizontal / time and vertical / scale pinch to zoom). Allow custom graphs overlaying any number of data features at a time, or stacking graphs to show multiple features in time sync. Build data graphing / trends into the main pages. Just check out a Bloomberg terminal or news show to see some very effective and compact text and graphical hybrid data presentation. I look forward to what the developers can do with all the data they have to share from a very nice piece of hardware.
