Weather Explorers
A weather station. A world of discovery.
Two students, two backyards, two weather stations. Pick an explorer and dig into the data.
What does a weather station measure?
Every few minutes, all day and night.
Temperature
How hot or cold the air is, in °F.
Humidity
How much water vapor is in the air, in %.
Rain
How much rain fell, in inches.
Wind
How fast the air moves, in miles per hour.
The explorer’s toolkit
A low-cost station like this one sits in a backyard and sends its readings to a screen inside.
The readings on this site are from the past, not live.
