I started this project becuase I'm very curious about weather forecasting. This first version (1.0) is reading temperature, humidity and barometric pressure and shows them on a basic LCD screen 16x2. The user can turn on or off light of the LCD with a button and control contrast level with a potentiometer.
Next version (2.0) is already in development and includes an Arduino Mini, a solar panel and and RF transmitter/receiver. The idea is to have a sensor outside powered by solar cell and an Arduino inside with RF receiver and a new advanced graphic display for showing information regarding outside weather conditions.
Version 3.0 will also include an anemometer, rain sensor and WiFi shield for transmitting information to open weather web services.
