William a self proclaimed Temperature Sensei, is a retired engineer who has worked on designing temperature sensor products for the past 25 years. After retirement, he spent the last four years building a portfolio of reviews on his website and is valued for his independent opinion about different products and services.

He took the liberty of contacting us regarding our innovative MeteoHelix personal weather station which finally brings professional meteorological sensor technologies to a price level that many hobbyist can afford. A notable fact is that the build quality, precision and accuracy of measurement in the MeteoHelix is often better than the large professional AWOS weather stations used by the NWS and the WMO to-date. An internationally published research paper, Intercomparison of Shelters in the RMI AWS Network validated the technology used in the MeteoHelix to be better that sensors used in most, if not all, professional weather stations.

The 1st in a line of new precipitation sensors, the MeteoRain 200 Compact rain gauge, begins production testing. Early independent testing has shown it to far outclass any other tipping bucket rain gauge in terms of accuracy and repeatability of measurement in field operations, thus classifying it as a maintenance-free meteorological sensor suitable for mass deployments.

As MeteoRain 200 Compact early production batch nears completion, preorder customers will be first in line to receive their units. The MeteoRain line of rain gauges features the only ultra-low-power rain gauges capable of high-precision rain measurement without regular maintenance.

MeteoRain 200 Compact is the first in line and will soon be followed by the stand-alone wireless MeteoRain IoT Compact and MeteoRain 400 Pro. They are designed for mass sensor deployments in Smart Cities, agriculture, and due to their high accuracy and repeatability of measurement can be used to replace aging WMO and NWS compliant meteorological equipment.

The University of Reading crowdsources digitization of UK rainfall records to citizens stuck at home due to coronavirus COVID-19

The University of Reading, in a project called the “Rainfall Rescue” by Prof. Ed Hawkins, is crowdsourcing help from people stuck at home due to the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak. The goal is to help transcribe old written records that are missing in the UK digital weather database between the years 1820 and 1950.

The effort is open to the public. Join here to help: https://www.zooniverse.org/projects/edh/rainfall-rescue

The digitized data allow scientists to analyze climatic changes better and to help them differentiate between short-term, medium-term, and long-term fluctuations in weather patterns.

In an effort to bring WMO quality rain and climatic measurement to the masses, BARANI DESIGN Technologies has developed a series of Internet-of-Things (IoT) micro-weather station sensors that are affordable enough for most households. More information can be found at the following links:
