    The local weather forecast, so local, it's from your own backyard.

    People are forever checking the local weather forecast. Problem is, that forecast could be hours old and for a neighborhood from far yours. That’s why BloomSky developed a new style of weather station. It uses digital cloud computing to provide you with a more accurate local weather forecast directly on your smartphone and directly from your backyard! The complete BloomSky weather station consists of both indoor and outdoor modules with six sensors making it capable of measuring temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, UV exposure, wind speed and direction, and precipitation. The external module also features an ultra-wide angle HD camera to record the weather from your own backyard. It routinely turns on at dawn and off at dusk to create a stop action video of the day’s weather events. The BloomSky weather station also automatically sends updates to your smartphone whenever the weather in your neighborhood changes. You can even use it to post weather photos to your Facebook page and Twitter feed. Once the system is up and running you’ll be able to see weather from other BloomSky weather stations, even if you don’t own one yourself. $179.99. It can pre-ordered now for $149.99. (As of 11/12/14) Optional accessories include a solar panel so you never need charge the internal battery.
