Forecasting Umbrella with LED now Available

This umbrella has been injected with some wonderful technology in the handle. A built-in wireless receiver gets a daily weather forecast from Accuweather.com, and blue LEDs will flash to let you know if the forecast is rain or snow. The LEDs located at the bottom of the handle will flash in proportion to the chance of precipitation for your area; if there is a 100% chance, it will flash quickly, and if a 10% chance, it will flash slowly. The umbrella itself is also incredibly well made. When opened, the umbrellas 58" dual-canopy "gust buster" design resists strong wind gusts and keeps you fully sheltered from precipitation.

• Easy push-button opening action and full length storage sleeve with wrist strap.
• Blue LEDs in the handle indicate when rain or snow is expected
• Receives weather data for 150 U.S. locations from Accuweather.com
• Top quality "gust buster" canopy design
• Network signal and low battery indicator lights
• Takes a single "C" size battery (not included)
• Dimensions: 41 1/2" L x 58" Diameter (it is a large umbrella)/p>

For $99 I hope I never ever get wet.
